1. An image data transfer device comprising:
a client information acquiring section that acquires information related to a user operation performed on a client terminal;
an image generating section that generates a frame of a moving image according to the user operation;
a communicating section that performs streaming transfer of data of the generated frame to the client terminal,
wherein the image generating section identifies contents displayed at a time when the user operation is performed, and causes contents represented by the frame to correspond to the user operation and the contents displayed at the time when the user operation is performed, and
wherein the image generating section compares contents of a provisional frame that is generated after the user operation is performed but before it is detected that the user operation has been performed, with contents of a new frame corresponding to the user operation, to determine whether or not to discard data of the provisional frame.
