Abstract
The present invention provides a meta-data display system capable of displaying meta data related to a shot video material along with the video material synchronously to the material. The meta-data display system includes an imaging apparatus for generating a video signal representing the video material. The meta-data display system also has a meta-data synthesis apparatus for extracting at least a part of meta data from the video signal including the meta data added for every frame and synthesizing the extracted part with the video signal. The meta-data display system also includes display apparatus each used for displaying a video signal including meta data synthesized therewith. In such a configuration, a part of meta data added to a video signal is extracted and converted into video data, which is then multiplexed in the video signal of every frame. Thus, the display apparatus are each capable of displaying not only an image represented by a video signal, but also meta data related to the image synchronously with the image.
