FIELD: optical record carrier, device and method for recording-reproduction, initialization method and repeated initialization method.
SUBSTANCE: recording-reproducing device includes recording/reading module, recording data onto information record carrier or reading data from information record carrier, having access control area, recorded in which are access control data, while access control data have common information, determined for allowing recording-reading device, which cannot recognize predetermined function of new standard, to control access to this information record carrier; and control module, controlling recording-reading module for recording access control data relatively to function, recognized by recording-reproducing device, in access control area, when information record carrier is being initialized or reinitialized.
EFFECT: ensured compatibility between disks and disk drive systems of various standards.
