Abstract
A method and an apparatus are provided for generating an output frame from an input frame, in which the input frame is processed when generating the output frame. A region of a current input frame is compared with a region of a preceding input frame to determine if the region of the current input frame is similar to the region of the preceding input frame. When the region of the current input frame is determined to be similar to the region of the preceding input frame, information relating to processing performed on the region of the preceding input frame when generating a region of a preceding output frame is read, wherein the information is generated during the processing on the region of the preceding input frame. When the information indicates that the processing is unnecessary, a part or all of the processing of the region of the current input frame can be bypassed or eliminated.
