Abstract
Provided is an image processing apparatus including an encoding processing unit that generates a plurality of encoded streams of different display sizes with respect to each of a plurality of picture contents, encodes the picture contents in units of predetermined blocks using the encoded streams, and generates an encoded stream of a multi-picture reproduction image to display the plurality of picture contents at the same time. When parameters regarding encoding of an original block that is a block of the picture contents corresponding to the predetermined block, which are included in the encoded streams of the picture contents, are prohibition parameters prohibited in the encoded stream of the multi-picture reproduction image, the encoding processing unit decodes the encoded streams of the original block, reencodes the streams, and sets the obtained encoded streams as the encoded streams of the predetermined block.
