A video data editor edits video data which has been predictive-coded between pictures. An editing controller outputs number data for specifying video data to be read from a recording medium and editing point data indicative of editing points of the vide data to be read. The video data is read from the recording medium in accordance with the outputted number data. The read video data is decoded to obtain reproduced pictures. The reproduced pictures are coded to obtain re-coded video data. Before and after the editing points, original coded video data is switched to the re-coded video data on the basis of the editing point data. In stead of the editing point data, video processing control data indicative of types of video processing for editing can be used. With the video processing control data, when judged that the video processing is proceeding, original coded video data is switched to the re-coded video data, before, during and after the video processing. <MATH> |
