Abstract
According to one embodiment, an image processing apparatus includes, an error detector configured to make an error check of the stream received, a player configured to reproduce the stream, a memory configured to store a plurality of pieces of displaying data indicating formats of the streams that can be processed by the image processing apparatus, a transmitter configured to transmit the pieces of displaying data stored in the memory to the external device in response to a request from the external device, and a rewriting module configured to delete one piece of displaying data stored in the memory when an error is detected by the error detector.
Claims11
An image processing apparatus configured to process a stream transmitted from an external device, comprising:
- a connector configured to form a communication path with the external device;
- an error detector configured to detect an error in the stream received by the connector;
- a memory configured to store pieces of displaying data indicating formats of streams that can be received by the connector and can be processed by the image processing apparatus;
- a transmitter configured to transmit the pieces of displaying data stored in the memory to the external device in response to a request from the external device;
- and
- a rewriting module configured to delete one piece of the displaying data stored in the memory when the error is detected by the error detector, wherein the pieces of displaying data are configured to be ranked and the memory is configured to store the ranked displaying data pieces, and
- the rewriting module is configured to delete a top-ranked piece of the displaying data from the displaying data pieces stored in the memory.
An image processing method to be used by an image processing apparatus configured to process a stream transmitted from an external device, the method comprising:
- forming a communication path with the external device;
- storing pieces of displaying data indicating formats of streams that can be processed by the image processing apparatus;
- transmitting the pieces of stored displaying data to the external device in response to a request from the external device;
- detecting an error in the stream;
- and
- deleting one piece of the stored displaying data when the error is detected, wherein the pieces of displaying data are configured to be ranked and the ranked displaying data pieces are configured to be stored, and a top-ranked piece of the displaying data is configured to be deleted from the displaying data pieces.
