Abstract
In a video coding apparatus, coding/decoding circuitry provides motion-compensated inter-frame prediction coding on input frames by using reference frames so that the input frames are coded into an intra-frame coded picture, a predictive coded picture or a bi-directionally predictive coded picture and decoding the coded frames to produce reference frames. Decision circuitry determines the magnitude of motion of the input frames relative to the reference frames, determines the interval between successive frames of the predictive coded picture according to the determined magnitude of motion and reorders the input frames according to the determined interval.
