Abstract

An image processing apparatus for reproducing a moving image from its encoded data is disclosed. The apparatus includes a decoding unit to decode the encoded data, and a control unit to control the decoding by the decoding unit. The control unit inhibits image reproduction by partial decoding in the decoding unit with respect to the encoded data of a moving image having scalability.
