Abstract
An image processing system (100) and method therein for processing streaming media content to reduce disturbing spatial and/or temporal phenomena before being displayed on a device display. The image processing system (100) receives media stream comprising sequences of video frames into a buffer (110) and analyzes the video frames during streaming. The analyzing (130) is performed either on completely decoded or partially decoded video frames within a Group of Picture (GOP) to detect disturbing spatial and/or temporal phenomena. If a disturbing spatial and/or temporal phenomenon is detected, the image processing system (100) processes (140) the decoded video frames to reduce the disturbing spatial and/or temporal phenomenon based on user settings of the device and displays the processed video frames on the display (150).
