Abstract
A buffer occupancy control method is provided in order to properly control a buffer occupancy of a decoder. The intial time delay indicated in data received by the buffer is extended and the capacity of the buffer is expanded according to the additional amount of data inserted during the extended initial time delay, thereby preventing the buffer from overflowing and underflowing. In particular, when a bitstream encoded with a frame rate of 24 Hz is decoded according to a display field frequency of 60 Hz, excellent images can be regenerated without requiring additional components.
