Abstract
The present invention relates to a method for scheduling and controlling access to a multibank memory having at least two banks, and to an apparatus for reading from and/or writing to recording media using such method. According to the invention, the method comprises the steps of: writing an input stream to the first bank; switching the writing of the input stream to the second bank when a read command for the first bank is received; and switching the writing of the input stream back to the first bank when a read command for the second bank is received.
