Abstract

Input encoded moving image data constituted by a plurality of frames including image data for at least one frame which is encoded by an intra-frame mode and image data encoded by an inter-frame mode is accumulated in, e.g., an accumulating apparatus in the form that allows proper reproduction of moving image data from a frame desired by an operator on the apparatus side to an arbitrary frame. In order to realize this processing, there is provided an image processing apparatus for processing input encoded moving image data constituted by a plurality of frames including image data for at least one frame which is encoded by the intra-frame mode and image data encoded by the inter-frame mode, comprising designation means for designating an arbitrary frame of the input encoded moving image data, decoding means for sequentially decoding the input encoded moving image data, first output means for determining the header frame of frames designated by the designation means, and outputting the header frame after it is decoded by the decoding means, and second output means for outputting input encoded moving image data following the header frame.
