Decoded data, which has been output from a decoder, is stored on storage so as to be presented or used for decoding another encoded data. A presentation method recognizer recognizes a presentation method for the decoded data. If the presentation method has been changed into a new presentation method, the recognizer sets the number of frame memories as required by the new presentation method. In that case, a memory allocator allocates the same number of sub-areas of the storage area as that set by the recognizer for the frame memories such that the sub-area previously allocated for the frame memory, on which the decoded data being presented is stored, is included in the sub-areas newly allocated.
