Patent attributes
According to one embodiment, an information processing apparatus inputs motion picture data generated by encoding a motion picture, each frame image of the motion picture is formed by synthesizing a plurality of images, containing a plurality of image data corresponding to the plurality of images. The apparatus includes a decoding module which decodes each of the image data contained in the motion picture data, and a drawing module which synthesizes each decoded image data to form image data of each frame image. The drawing module includes a measurement module which measures a time period for synthesizing the image data and outputting the synthesized image data, and a frame rate control module which decrements a frame rate related to a composite processing of the motion picture data by reducing the number of composite processing target frames per unit time when the measured time period exceeds a predetermined value.
