Abstract

The present invention provides a method and apparatus for editing program search information. The scene descriptive information of optical disc program is edited into a search information unit when the optical disc program is inscribed on an optical disc or optical disc program is off-line edited. Said scene descriptive information includes description of the scene elements. Then said search information unit is edited into a search information file for use in optical disc search. By means of this solution, searching of keyword information, descriptive information of the scene as well as descriptive information of scene element are unified together and directly used as information to be searched, thus the present invention, being different from the conventional search information file such as the playlist which has only the pointer information but not the descriptive information of the object to be searched, simplifies the process of enhanced search.
