PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a storage medium having a data management structure for efficiently determining whether an overview image showing an overview of original image or character information showing additional contents has been added, and to provide a moving image voice recording/reproducing apparatus which has improved operability of searching the recorded original images by generating and outputting overview images from the original images, even if no overview images are added. SOLUTION: In a video recording medium being an information recording medium, a moving image and a voice signal are recorded by a recording means, wherein the moving image and the voice signal are electronically generated and converted into compressed moving image voice data by applying encoding and compression processing to the moving image and voice signal. In the video recording medium, small-screen recording information showing recording position information of the moving image and the image showing an over view of the voice signal or character information showing additional contents about them is recorded, or small-screen recording information showing that the image showing the overview and the character information are not set by a user or a system is recorded.
