Abstract

A moving picture search support device allows a particular scene or frame to be searched quickly and surely from a moving file that has been accessed in the past based on weighing that is derived from an evaluation made by the degree of importance. The device of the invention, which is used to reproduce a moving picture, includes an operation history storage unit and a history calculating unit. The operation history storage unit stores history data that has been given a predetermined weight corresponding to an operation mode selected for processing a moving picture file by a user. The history calculating unit determines, in response to a search request made by the user for desired moving picture data within the moving picture file, a priority level at which the desired moving picture data is displayed in accordance with the predetermined weight based on the history data stored in the operation history storage unit.
