Abstract:
1. An encoding apparatus, comprising: an encoding execution block configured to encode image frames of moving image data based on a collection of encoding settings; and a setting block configured to set values for the encoding settings such that wherein the encoding settings include an encoding frame rate setting, when the encoding frame rate setting is set to the default value, the encoding execution block executes an encoding processing on the moving image data each encoding time interval regardless of respective input timings of image frames of the moving image data, and when the value of the encoding frame rate setting is set to the dark image value, the encoding execution block executes the encoding processing on the moving image data based on the respective input timings of the image frames of the moving image data, wherein the encoding settings include an encoding repetition setting, when the encoding repetition setting is set to the default value and the encoding execution block executes the encoding processing on an image frame of the moving image data, the encoding execution block encodes the image frame only once, and when the encoding repetition setting is set to the dark image value and the encoding execution block executes the encoding processing on an image frame of the moving image data, the encoding execution block is enabled to encode the image frame a plurality of times.
