Abstract

An information processing apparatus includes a unit that executes a de-blocking filter process for each of decoded pictures, a unit that executes a motion compensation prediction process that generates an inter-frame prediction signal, from one or more pictures that are subjected to the de-blocking filter process, a unit that executes an intra-frame prediction process that generates an intra-frame prediction signal, a unit that adds one of the inter-frame prediction signal and the intra-frame prediction signal to a prediction error signal corresponding to the to-be-decoded picture to decode the to-be-decoded picture, and a unit that executes, when a load on the information processing apparatus is greater than a predetermined reference value, a process that skips execution of the de-blocking filter process and generates the inter-frame prediction signal, which corresponds to the to-be-decoded picture, from the one or more decoded pictures that are not subjected to the de-blocking filter process.
