1. A method for processing a video image sequence, comprising: generating an input scaling factor based on a speed of movement between corresponding image sections respectively located in current and preceding image frames; scaling a size of an image section of the current image frame with the input scaling factor to produce a scaled image; motion compensating the scaled image to produce a motion compensated scaled image; scaling the motion compensated scaled image with an output scaling factor that is an inverse of the input scaling factor to produce a motion-compensated output image.
