ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for editing recorded audio and/or video material, in which temporally successive material clips of a edited output material sequence are represented by corresponding clip icons on a display screen displayed in a display order corresponding to the temporal order of replay of the material clips. The apparatus includes a device for enabling a user to select a desired clip icon from among a plurality of clip icons on the display screen and to move a display position of the selected clip icon; a device for detecting, during movement of the display position of the selected clip icon on the display screen, the clip icon which is nearest on the display screen to a current display position of the clip icon being moved; a device for determining whether the current display position of the clip icon being moved is before or after the detected nearest icon in the display order corresponding to the temporal order of the material clips; and a device for generating and displaying on the display screen a direction indicator so as to indicate to the user whether the clip icon being moved would be placed before or after the detected nearest icon if the movement thereof was to be completed at the current display position.
