Abstract:
A data processing method of adding meta-data to binary data, comprising:a first reading step of reading binary data to which meta-data is to be added; a second reading step of reading meta-data to be added to the binary data; a first attaching step of attaching the meta-data, read in said second reading step, behind the binary data read in said first reading step, wherein the binary data may include its own end code; a determination step of determining whether or not the binary data has an end code; a second attaching step of attaching an end code, corresponding to the binary data, behind the meta-data attached in said first attaching step; and an output step of outputting entire data, obtained by said first and second attaching steps, as a single file, wherein if it is determined in said determination step that the binary data has an end code, in said second attaching step the end code corresponding to the binary data is attached behind the meta-data, which is attached in said first attaching step.
