Patent ID: 10334262

Abstract:
The present invention is directed to reduce deterioration in parallel processing capability. In a moving-picture decoding processing apparatus, information of a first plurality of frames and a second plurality of frames is supplied from a decoding control unit to first and second decoding processing units. For decoding the information from an intermediate point to an end point of a second preceding frame by the second decoding unit in a third period, use of a result of the process of the first decoding processing unit in the third period is inhibited, and use of a result of the process of a first preceding frame by the first decoding processing unit in a second period is permitted by an end signal. By reach of the intermediate point of the decoding of the second preceding frame by the second decoding processing unit in the second period, information from the start point to the intermediate point of the first subsequent frame included in the plural frames is decoded by the first decoding unit in the third period.
