摘要:
Methods and apparatus for encoding and decoding an audio and/or video signal, and a record carrier for use with such apparatus. One or more audio and/or full motion video signals, e.g., a video signal, and possibly computer data) are recorded on an interactive compact disc. The video signal is encoded into code blocks of variable lengths, each corresponding to a picture or picture pair. A decoder delay time parameter is associated with one or more of the code blocks, which parameter represents a length of time (i.e., a delay time) with which the corresponding picture of a code block is to be displayed after that code block has been received by a decoding apparatus.
摘要:
An optically readable disc like a compact disc contains a sequence of full-motion video scene digital video blocks, having differing lengths. Each video block contains the entire encoded picture information for at least one picture of the sequence. A header in each video block contains reference information referring to the location of a predetermined video block in the series of blocks, so that this information permits a playback device to recover from a slow-motion or freeze mode by reading from a desired location in the predetermined video block.

Methods and apparatus for encoding and decoding an audio and/or video signal, and a record carrier for use with such apparatus. One or more audio and/or full motion video signals, e.g., a video signal (and possibly computer data), are recorded on an interactive compact disc. The video signal prior to being recorded is encoded into code blocks of variable lengths, each corresponding to a picture or picture pair. A decoder delay time parameter associated with one or more of the code blocks, which parameter represents a length of time (i.e., a delay time) with which the corresponding picture of a code block is to be displayed after that code block has been received by a decoding apparatus is determined and included in the video signal prior to being recorded.
摘要:
An apparatus generates an image signal in which pixels are encoded in N-bit words which encode at least a luma per pixel. A receiver (201) obtains high dynamic range pixel values in accordance with a first color representation in M-bitwords. A first generator (203) includes the high dynamic range pixel values in the image signal in the N-bit words according to a second color representation. A second generator (205) includes in the image signal an indicator that high dynamic range pixel values are encoded. In some examples, the high dynamic range pixel values may be provided in a segment that can alternatively contain high or low dynamic range pixel values, and the indicator may indicate which type of data is included. The approach may e.g. facilitate introduction of high dynamic range capability into e.g. HDMI systems.
摘要:
A method and transmitting system for transmitting an information signal, a receiving system for receiving the transmitted information signal, and an information carrier on which the information signal is recorded. The information signal is transmitted from the transmitting system to the receiving system. The information signal includes basic information and overlay information. The basic information includes video content that is adapted to be displayed on a display device. The overlay information includes overlay content and time information. The overlay content is adapted to be overlayed on a portion of the displayed video content for a period of time during the displaying of the video content. The overlay content, and not the portion of the displayed video content, appears visible during the period of time. The time information is indicative of the period of time.
摘要:
Video information intended to be reproduced on a television screen (1) often includes additional information such as graphics information (3) or subtitles (4) in addition to the main information such as film images (2). This additional information is transmitted separately, so that the user may choose whether the additional information is to be displayed or not. In the disclosed method the transmitted video signal comprises information relating to the duration (25) for which the additional information is to remain on the display. With this method the additional information can be displayed exactly for the duration of the desired time. When a video disc or tape is used for transferring video information, this is advantageous in trick modes, such as Fast Forward.
摘要:
A 3D source device for outputting a three-dimensional image signal, the three-dimensional image signal comprising multi-view image data, the 3D source device comprising an input for receiving image data; a generator arranged to generate the three-dimensional image signal based on the image data, the three-dimensional image signal comprising a first component comprising multiple 2D images for use in stereoscopic viewing, a second component comprising overlay data and a third component defining disparity signaling information for use in overlaying image data over the respective ones of the multiple 2D images. New disparity signaling information in a further third component overrules the disparity signaling information in the third component.
摘要:
A method of creating a three-dimensional image signal including receiving a first image component, receiving a second component for creating a three-dimensional image in combination with the first image component, receiving a text component for including in the three-dimensional image, receiving a data component comprising location information describing the location of the text component within the three-dimensional image, and creating a three-dimensional image signal comprising the first image component, the second component, the text component, and the data component. The signal is rendered by rendering a three-dimensional image from the first image component and the second component, the rendering including rendering the text component in the three-dimensional image. The rendering of the text component includes adjusting three-dimensional parameters of the three-dimensional image in the location of the rendered text component.
摘要:
A method of recording an encoded bit stream, said encoded bit stream representing a plurality of video objects comprising a sequence of cells together constituting a part of an MPEG2 Program Stream, on a disc like record carrier, such as an optical disc. The method comprises recording video objects comprising a sequence of contiguously recorded cells, each cell comprising a unique cell identification number within a video object, recording of a playback sequence of cells that defines a playable program chain of cells, wherein said sequence comprises references to the cell identification numbers and recording navigation data within said cells comprising said cell identification numbers.The method further comprises dividing at least one previously recorded cell into new cells and/or overwriting at least one previously recorded cell at least partly with a new cell, assigning the at least one new cell with a cell identification number and recording a new playback sequence of cells employing the at least one new cell, the new playback sequence not necessarily employing an incremental numbering of cell identification numbers.Hereby a time consuming renumbering of all cells is being avoided.
摘要:
A method of contiguously recording a sequence of ordered A/V information signals and corresponding management information signals on a disc-like recording medium of the write-once type, includes allocating a reserved area within a linear addressing space of the disc, contiguously recording the A/V information signals in a video recording area located succeeding the reserved area, recording corresponding management data in a temporary overview space succeeding the video recording area, generating a mapping table for mapping the recorded management data to address locations in the reserved area and recording the mapping table in the temporary overview space. When finalizing the disc, the recorded management information signals is copied to the reserved area in correspondence to the latest mapping table information and the remaining unrecorded sections of the reserved area is recorded with arbitrary data signals.
