Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a shot splitting unit that splits a moving image into a plurality of shots each including a plurality of sequential frames; a shot detecting unit that detects, among the shots, a second shot similar to a first shot that is to be encoded; a first shot-generating unit that generates a third shot by correcting a time length of the second shot; a second shot-generating unit that generates a fourth shot by performing motion compensation using at least one of the first shot and the third shot; and an encoding unit that encodes a difference between the first shot and the fourth shot.
