Abstract
Provided are a data editing apparatus, a data editing method and a data recording/reproducing apparatus which can easily reedit edited data recorded on a nonlinear-accessible recording medium. When a start point (IN point) or an end point (OUT point) of partial data of edited data to be reedited is specified, a controller controls a recorder and reproducer and HDDs so as to reproduce material data containing the partial data to be reedited in synchronization with operation for changing the specified start or end point of the partial data. Moreover, when operation for determining a new start or end point is performed in a state in which the material data is reproduced in synchronization with changing operation, the controller reedits the edited data in accordance with determining operation. During reediting, the controller reedits data on the basis of a temporary file. The controller reedits data while reproducing the same reproducing state as the reproducing state after reediting.
