Abstract:
The present technology relates to an image processing apparatus and method capable of preventing an increase in a cost of the apparatus. A setting unit sets restriction information for restricting a size of a block of an image and a prediction method to be applied to the block having the size. An inter-prediction unit generates a prediction image according to the restriction information. An encoder  1000  encodes the block using the prediction image and generates an encoded stream. Then, the encoder  1000  transmits the encoded stream and the restriction information. The present technology can be applied to a case of encoding/decoding an image, and the like.

Claim (Index 13):
The image processing method according to  claim 12 , wherein a size of the prediction unit is one of 4\u00d74, 8\u00d74, 4\u00d78, or 8\u00d78.
