Abstract:
1. An image decoding apparatus comprising: a decoding device for converting input image coded data for generating and outputting image data by decoding said image coded data; a memory device for storing decoded image data generated by said decoding device; first to N-th, N being an integer 2 or more, image format conversion devices for generating first to N-th images by converting said decoded image data read from the memory device into respective predetermined image formats determined by input filter parameters, and outputting said first to N-th images in synchrony with input first to N-th vertical image synchronizing signals which are synchronized with each other; and wherein a non-display period is provided between a common timing of each of said vertical image synchronizing signals and a timing of said image data; and wherein said filter parameters are multiplexed with the decoded image data in said non-display period.
