Patent ID: 8422565

Claim:
An information processing device comprising: an accumulating unit configured to accumulate encoded data obtained by encoding image data; a reading unit configured to read out said encoded data in data increments; a determining unit configured to determine whether or not a parameter indicating the accumulated state of said encoded data at said accumulating unit satisfies a predetermined accumulation condition; a forbidding unit configured to forbid readout of encoded data to be read out relative to encoded data being read out by said reading unit in data increments, which serves as a reference, in response to said determining unit determining that said parameter satisfies said accumulation condition; and a control unit configured to control said reading unit to omit readout of said encoded data of which readout is forbidden by said forbidding unit in data increments, and to perform readout of encoded data of which readout is not prohibited by said forbidding unit in data increments, said encoded data of which readout is not prohibited corresponding to encoded data that consecutively precedes and consecutively follows said encoded data of which readout is forbidden.
