Image reproducing method and image processing method, and image reproducing device, image processing device, and television receiver capable of using the methods

摘要

When a reverse reproduction is instructed in an image reproducing apparatus (1), reproduced image data per picture generated by an MPEG video decoder (5) in a time series manner are inputted to an MPEG video encoder (6) so as to be recoded to I picture alone or B picture combined with I picture. An MPEG video decoder 7 reads out this recoded data sequence in a reverse time-series manner and decodes it successively, and displays a smooth reverse reproduced image. As the case may be, a data amount reducing circuit which reduces resolution and a data amount restoring circuit which restores the resolution are inserted therebetween. The reverse reproduction which is superior in ease of operation, cost merit, implemented area and so forth is realized.
