Claim:
1. A video encoding method for encoding first video data by inter-frame predictive coding, comprising: obtaining, by at least one processor, for a first picture included in the first video data, the first picture being encoded without referring to any other picture included in the first video data, decoding delay correction information for correcting decoding delay for each of the first picture and subsequent pictures in the first video data and display delay correction information for correcting display delay for each of the first picture and subsequent pictures in the first video data when the first picture and the subsequent pictures are spliced to a trailing end of second encoded video data after the first video data is encoded; and encoding each picture contained in the first video data and appending the decoding delay correction information and the display delay correction information to the first video data encoded by the at least one processor, wherein the decoding delay correction information includes a value corresponding to the number of pictures that are later in encoding order than the first picture and are encoded with referring to a picture that is earlier in encoding order than the first picture and the display delay correction information includes a value corresponding to the number of pictures occurring between a display time of a picture that is earliest in display order among the pictures that are later in encoding order than the first picture and a display time of the first picture.
