Abstract
The invention discloses an image processing apparatus and an image processing method. A server can transmit a first image and a second image. In an embodiment, the apparatus includes a receiving/transmitting unit, a processing unit and a display unit. The receiving/transmitting unit can communicate with the server to receive the first image and the second image. The processing unit is coupled to the receiving/transmitting unit and the display unit. The processing unit is for selectively recompressing the first image at a first compression ratio and then controlling the display unit to display the first image. In addition, the processing unit transmits the selected first compression ratio to the server such that the server compresses the second image at the first compression ratio and transmits it to the receiving/transmitting unit.
