You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

In [[optical storage]], '''constant linear velocity''' ('''CLV''') is a qualifier for the rated speed of an [[optical disc drive]], and may also be applied to the writing speed of recordable [[optical disc|discs]]. CLV implies that the [[angular velocity]] (i.e. [[revolutions per minute|rpm]]) varies during an operation, as contrasted with [[constant angular velocity|CAV]] modes. The concept of constant linear velocity was patented in 1886 by phonograph pioneers [[Chichester Bell]] and [[Charles Tainter]].

== History ==
[[LaserDisc]]s, the first consumer optical discs, used constant linear velocity to double playback time (CLV / "extended play" discs can hold 1 hour per side; CAV / "standard play" discs can only hold 30 minutes). As the motor's speed decreases from 1,800 to 600 rpm when the read head moves away from the center (which is the start of the recording), the disc moves past the read head at a constant speed.

Later optical formats such as the [[Compact Disc|audio CD]] also employ CLV to maintain both a constant data rate and a constant bit density. Their rotation gradually decreases from 495 to 212 rpm to keep the disc moving past the read laser at ((convert|1.2|m/s|abbr=on)) (assuming 1:1 playback speed and Red Book encoding).

To accommodate the higher data transfer rates and random access requirements of modern [[CD-ROM#Transfer rates|CD-ROM]] drives, [[Constant angular velocity|CAV]] systems are used. This is because seek performance would be greatly affected during random access by the requirement to continually modulate the disc's rotation speed to be appropriate for the read head's position.

== Dimensions ==
[[File:Basic Illustration and mesures of a CD.svg|thumb|Dimensions of a standard-size (12cm diameter) [[optical disc]]]]
In case of a 12&nbsp;cm standard diameter disc, data at the inner edge of the so-called ''program area'', the area containing the data (2.5&nbsp;cm from disc center) is accessed at 2.4 times the angular (rotation) speed of the disc compared to at the outer edge (6&nbsp;cm from disc center).<ref name=OD-Diameter>((Cite web |url=https://docplayer.es/74808946-Fundamentos-de-hardware.html |title=''FUNDAMENTOS DE HARDWARE.'' – Page 37 of 45 (graphic) |access-date=2020-07-13 |archive-date=2022-02-23 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220223102343/https://docplayer.es/74808946-fundamentos-de-hardware.html |url-status=dead ))</ref>

For a [[miniCD|miniature disc]] with a diameter of 8&nbsp;cm (radius of 4&nbsp;cm), the angular (rotation) speed ratio of outer to inner data edge is 1.6 if accessed at a constant linear velocity.

This means that, for example, at a constant linar velocity of ×10, the equivalent [[angular velocity]] of the disc is ×24 while the being accessed at the inner data area, while being ×10 during access at the outermost edge.

==Zoned constant linear velocity==
[[Image:Zone clv.jpg|thumb|The Zone-CLV recording strategy is easily visible after burning a DVD-R]]
'''Zoned constant linear velocity''' ('''''ZCLV''''' or '''''Z-CLV''''') is a modification of CLV for high speed CD and [[DVD recorder]]s where a constant linear velocity is maintained until the next zone, when the speed is stepped up.   Early model recorders were CLV drives. The recording speed on such drives was rated in multiples of 150 [[KiB]]/s; a 4X drive, for instance, would write steadily at around 600 KiB/s. The transfer rate was kept constant by having the spindle motor in the drive vary in speed and run 2.4 times<ref name=OD-Diameter/> as fast when recording at the inner rim of the disc as on the outer rim. Some high-speed recorders use the zoned CLV method (ZCLV), which divides the disc into stepped zones, each of which has its own constant linear velocity. When the current zone is finished and the next zone is reached, the disc rotation will speed up, usually to the same angular speed as at the beginning of the previous zone.

At higher speeds, ZCLV offers a compromise between CAV, which enables faster [[seek time]]s, and CLV, which enables greater writing reliability. A ZCLV recorder rated at "52X", for example, would write at a 52X disc rpm on the innermost zone and then progressively step down to 20X disc rpm at the outer rim to keep the rate at which bits are recorded by the laser within a narrow range.<ref name=Z-CLV>[https://qpxtool.sourceforge.io/glossar.html#zone_clv QPxTool glossary – Zoned CLV]</ref><ref name=OSTA-ZCLV>[http://www.osta.org/technology/dvdqa/dvdqa4.htm Understanding DVD -Recording Speed] by [[Optical Storage Technology Association]] – Section: Zoned Constant Linear Velocity (ZCLV)</ref> This method is used for higher-speed [[CD-RW#Details|CD-RW variants]] due to the narrow writing speed range of rewriteable media.

==Constant angular acceleration==
'''Constant angular acceleration''' ('''CAA''') is a variant of CLV that is used on the LaserDisc format. The initial specification of CLV (as it applies to laserDisc) results in several playback artifacts to be present in the audio/video portion as well as compatibility problems with LaserDisc players as produced by different manufacturers.

In the mid 1980s, Pioneer Electronics introduced the CAA scheme where the speed in rotation of the LaserDisc was lowered in steps and eliminated most playback artifacts and compatibility problems. Since its introduction, most manufacturers of LaserDiscs adopted the CAA format but still referred to their CAA-encoded product as CLV.
