Abstract
A computer system for sending out and reproducing at a fixed rate a moving picture file encoded by a moving picture compression scheme using interframe prediction is disclosed. In producing a file for rapid feed or reverse rapid feed from the moving picture file, I-pictures are extracted sequentially from the head of the moving picture file for rapid feed and from the trailing end of the moving picture file for reverse rapid feed thereby to reduce the information by the I-pictures. Digits 0s are padded in place of the I-pictures thus reduced and a designated bit rate for reproduction is stored in the header of the picture file, thereby producing a moving picture file for trick play.
