Abstract
In order to present a video-recording system capable of managing a video material and meta data related to the video material in an integrated manner by directly linking the meta data to the video material, the video-recording system is provided with a meta data addition apparatus for adding the meta data to every frame of a video signal generated by an imaging apparatus as a video signal representing the video material and a VTR for recording the video signal including the additional meta data onto a recording medium. In such a configuration, concurrently with a shooting operation carried out by using the imaging apparatus, meta data related to a video signal generated in the shooting operation can be sequentially added to every frame of the video signal and, then, the video signal including the additional meta data can be sequentially recorded onto the recording medium. Thus, the meta data and the video signal can be recorded on the same recording medium by directly linking the meta data to the video signal so that the meta data and the video signal can be managed in an integrated manner.
