Abstract:
1. A recording and reproducing apparatus, comprising: a first decoding unit which decodes an inputted video signal into a video frame; a decimation unit which decimates the number of frames decoded by said decoding unit; an encoding unit which encodes the video frame decimated by said decimation unit into an encoded video signal; a storage device which stores the video signal encoded by said encoding unit; a second decoding unit which decodes the video signal stored in said storage device; and a motion correction type frame rate converting device which detects a motion vector of each frame of the video signal which is decoded by the second decoding unit and estimates and creates video frames from the detected motion vector; wherein said decimation unit decimates a large number of frames when the motion amount of an object in the video is small, and decimates a small number of frames when the motion amount of an object in the video is large.
