Abstract

An editing system is provided with a video-recording control unit for recording an inputted content data in a HD and an edited image control unit for generating an operation screen necessary for editing when the content data is edited, and when the content data is edited, the edited content data is stored in the HD in relation to image and audio data used when the content data is edited.

Claims

1. A data editing and recording apparatus comprising:

an editing device which edits a content data having at least one of an audio data and an image data;

a notifying device which notifies the content of an editing operation for the content data to a user when the content data is edited; and

a storage device in which the edited content data and a notification data used when the content of the editing operation is notified to a user by the notifying device are stored so as to be related to each other.

2. The data editing and recording apparatus according to claim 1,

wherein, when editing items that represent the content of a plurality of editing operations are continuously executed, the notification data related to at least one of the plurality of the editing items is stored in the storage device in relation to the edited content data.

3. The data editing and recording apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

an operation input device which is used for the editing operation and to which a command of the editing operation is inputted;

a detecting device which detects the command for the editing operation inputted to the operation input device, during the editing of the content data by the editing device; and

a control device which controls whether the notification data related to the editing operation is stored in the storage device, based on the input of the command for the editing operation detected by the detecting device, during at least one editing operation.

4. The data editing and recording apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a generating device which generates an image data that represents the content of the editing operation when the notifying device gives a notification using an image,

wherein the notifying device gives the notification using the generated image data, and the generated image data is stored in the storage device as the notification data in relation to the content data.

5. The data editing and recording apparatus according to claim 1, further comprising:

a storage device which stores the audio data in advance that represents the content of the editing operation when the notifying device gives a notification using a sound,

wherein the audio data that represents the content of the editing operation by the editing device is stored in the storage device as the notification data in relation to the content data.

6. The data editing and recording apparatus according to claim 1,

wherein history information related to the editing of the content data is stored in the storage device in relation to the content data and the notification data.

7. The data editing and recording apparatus according to claim 6,

wherein at least one of the editing start time that indicates the start time of the editing, the editing finish time that indicates the finish time of the editing, or editing items is stored in the storage device as the history information.

8. A data editing and recording method in which, when the content data having at least one of the audio data or the image data is edited, the edited content data is stored in storage device, the method comprising:

a notifying process of notifying a user of the content of the editing operation for the content data during the editing operation of the content data; and

a storing process of storing, after the editing operation of the content data is completed, the edited content data and notification data used for performing the notification in the storage device so as to be related to each other.

9. A data editing and recording program for editing the content data having at least one of the audio data and the image data, that makes a computer that is included in a data editing and recording apparatus, function as:

an editing device which edits the content data;

a notification control device which allows the notifying device to notify a user of the content of the editing operation for the content data when the content data is edited; and

a storage control device which stores the edited content data and the notification data used when the content of the editing operation is notified to user by the notifying means in the storage means so as to be related to each other.

10. A computer-readable information recording medium on which the data editing and recording program is recorded in a readable way by a computer included in a data editing and recording apparatus which, the data editing and recording program causing the recording computer to function as:

an editing device which edits the content data;

a notification control device which allows the notifying device to notify a user of the content of the editing operation for the content data when the content data is edited; and

a storage control device which stores the edited content data and the notification data used when the content of the editing operation is notified to a user by the notifying means in the storage means so as to be related to each other.
