Abstract

Abstract Method and system for playing back information recorded on a non-CAV type recording disk use a memory device capable of recording information of at least one field of video signal. An information reading point of a pickup device is moved by a track jump operation repeated ly at intervals of N (N being a natural number) times of rotation of the recording disc, across M (M being a multiple of N including N) recording tracks. Portions of information picked up during periods between each track jump operation is written in the memory device in order and then read in succession, to provide a playback information for a special playback operation such as a still picture playback operation or fast speed playback operations.
