Abstract
A moving picture coding method, a moving picture decoding method, a moving picture coding device, and a moving picture decoding device perform skipped display even in a moving picture decoding device having insufficient processing capability and while suppressing an increase in an amount of coded data. A plurality of combined pictures are generated each of which is generated by combining a plurality of pictures into a combined picture having the plurality of pictures as regions. The plurality of the combined pictures is coded and a slice boundary between the regions is set in the combined picture. For each of the plurality of combined pictures, when the combined picture has one or more to-be-displayed region except at least one not-to-be-displayed region, the to-be-displayed region is coded with reference to only a to-be-displayed region of another combined picture. The one or more to-be-displayed region is displayed for skipped reproduction.
