Abstract
Abstract In an optical-disk playback apparatus which plays back an optical-disk (1) on which control programs defining the operations of said optical-disk playback apparatus (2 etc.) and other informations are recorded, that is, in an optical-disk playback apparatus operable by a combination of an optical-disk such as a laser disk or CD and a printed matter on which barcodes are pinted, by recording predetermined programs defining the operation of said optical-disk playback apparatus corresponding to said barcodes, the following two advantages, i.e., that variable, complicated and yet flexible optical-disk playback operations which are not fixed at the first system designing stage can be accomplished by simply tracing said printed barcode because the operation of optical-disk playback apparatus is controlled by the control programs recorded in said optical disk, and that troubles which might happen when optical-disk and barcode of different system are combined can be prevented since the one-to-one correspondence between barcode and optical disk code is established beforehand, can be accomplished.
