1. An image processing apparatus, comprising integrally:
- a first block including;
a front-end decoder which decodes a first coded data sequence read from a hard disk;
a first frame memory for temporarily storing decoded data; and
a first display circuit which generates an image video signal for forward reproduction from data inputted from the first frame memory in succession;
a second block including;
an image input circuit which converts the image video signal, outputted from said first block, to a video data sequence;
a second frame memory for storing the video data sequence temporarily; and
an encoder which codes the video data sequence inputted from the second frame memory in succession into a second coded data sequence and outputs the second coded data to a predetermined storage area in the hard disk; and
a third block including;
a back-end decoder which decodes the second coded data sequence outputted from the storage area in a reverse time-series manner;
a third frame memory for storing decoded data temporarily; and
a second display circuit which generates an image video signal for reverse reproduction from data inputted from the third frame memory in succession, whereinthe second block generates the second coded data sequence and outputs the second coded data sequence to the storage area in the storage device during forward reproduction.

Abstract
When a reverse reproduction is instructed, an MPEG video stream is once decoded and is converted to image video signals by a first display circuit. Thereafter, the image video signals are again recoded by an image input circuit and an MPEG video encoder, so as to be overwritten in a storage area of a hard disk. An MPEG video decoder reads out this recoded data sequence in a reverse time-series manner and decodes it successively. Then the thus decoded data are converted to image video signals by a second display circuit, so as to be displayed on a display.
