Abstract

An image processing circuit includes a de-interlace circuit, a motion interpolation circuit and a frame processing circuit. The image processing circuit receives a first field and a second field respectively from two successive film frames. A plurality of block motion vectors are calculated according to the first field and the second field. A plurality of interpolated frames are calculated according to the first field, the second field and the plurality of motion vectors.
