Abstract
Provided is a method of encoding media content and metadata. The method includes generating a scale indicator, which indicates a unit size of information about the media content, in the metadata, and determining data areas in the metadata that have different values based on the generated scale indicator. Accordingly, a range that can be expressed by the data area, that has a limited space in the metadata, can be increased.
