Abstract

An image display apparatus and method are disclosed. In the present invention, image frames of various data information sizes are displayed with a selected output data information size. If the selected output data information size is below a limit of a storage medium for buffering image frames to be displayed, the data information size of an input image frame is adjusted to the output data information, and the image frame is displayed in the output data information size. If the output data information exceeds the limit of the storage medium, the input image is over-compressed to have a lower data information size. Then an image processing is performed to the image frame, so that the processed image frame is decompressed to have the output data information size before being displayed. Therefore, the decompressed image frame can be displayed in the selected output data information size.
