Claim:
1. A video decoding apparatus for decoding video data encoded by inter-frame predictive coding, comprising: a picture time determining unit which, when the encoded video data contains information indicating that the encoded video data has been generated by splicing first encoded video data to a trailing end of second encoded video data, information indicating that one or more encoded pictures that have been discarded from the encoded video data and are later in encoding order than a starting encoded picture in the first encoded video data, the starting encoded picture being a picture immediately following a splicing point at which the second encoded video data and the first encoded video data are spliced, decoding delay correction information for correcting a decoding delay of a picture that follows the starting encoded picture, and display delay correction information for correcting a display delay of the starting encoded picture, then corrects the display delay of the starting encoded picture based on the display delay correction information, while correcting, based on the decoding delay correction information, the decoding delay of the picture that follows the starting encoded picture.
