摘要:
The present invention provides a configuration capable of effectively preventing an encrypted content stored on an information-recording medium from being misused. In this configuration, a seed (seed 2) required for generating a block key to be applied to a process to decode an encrypted content is stored as information encrypted by using another block key Kb1. In addition, in a configuration where the seed (seed 2) needs to be transferred from a device to another, both the seed (seed 2) and a recording key K2 are transferred from the device to the other as information encrypted by using a session key. In such configurations, it is difficult to analyze the seed (seed 2) by acquisition of data from the information-recording medium or a data transmission line. Thus, difficulties to analyze a key generated by using the seed and analyze an encryption algorithm are increased. As a result, protection of contents at a high level of security can be implemented.

Method and apparatus for reproducing MPEG-compressed video data and compressed audio data from an optical disk having a diameter less than 140 mm and, a thickness of 1.2 mm±0.1 mm, with a plurality of record tracks having data recorded thereon as embossed pits representing information and exhibiting a track pitch in the range between 0.646 &mgr;m and 1.05 &mgr;m; with the tracks being divided into a lead-in area, a program area and a lead-out area. The data includes table of contents (TOC) information recorded in a plurality of sectors in at least one TOC track and user information recorded in a plurality of sectors in user tracks. The user information is comprised of MPEG-compressed video data, which may exhibit any one of difference MPEG formats, and compressed audio data, which likewise may exhibit an MPEG format, a PCM format or the like. The TOC information includes addresses of start sectors recorded in the user tracks and also includes application table of contents (ATOC) information which identifies various parameters for accessing and using the user information. The data (both user, TOC and ATOC information) is encoded in a long distance error correction code having at least eight parity symbols.
摘要:
An apparatus and a method of encoding a digital signal with which a transmission buffer (an encoder buffer) does not overflow even if recording of a signal on a recording medium is temporarily inhibited attributable to, for example, an external shock or even if transmission of a signal by broadcast or communication is temporarily inhibited because of unsatisfactory state of communication. In a case where recording on an optical disk is temporarily inhibited and an output of data from an encoder is interrupted attributable to, for example, an external shock during an operation for recording a bit stream obtained by encoding a video signal on the optical disk, an encoding bit rate is lowered. Thus, a fact that the encoder buffer overflows can be prevented.

An optical disk having a diameter less than 140 mm and, a thickness of 1.2 mm.+-.0.1 mm, with a plurality of record tracks having data recorded thereon as embossed pits representing information and exhibiting a track pitch in the range between 0.646 .mu.m and 1.05 .mu.m; with the tracks being divided into a lead-in area, a program area and a lead-out area. The data includes table of contents (TOC) information recorded in a plurality of sectors in at least one TOC track and user information recorded in a plurality of sectors in user tracks; with the TOC information including addresses of start sectors recorded in the user tracks. The data (both user and TOC information) is encoded in a long distance error correction code having at least eight parity symbols, and is run length limited (RLL) modulated.

A motion picture coding and decoding system is provided, which permits high picture quality to be obtained with less information amount than that in case of a system having the sole function of DCT coding, permits reduction of block distortion of reproduced picture and permits coding efficiency increase. One picture frame is divided into a plurality of blocks for block-by-block coding. At this time, discrete cosine transform (DCT) coding and intra-block non-transform coding (NTC) are adaptively switched one over to the other according to the character of pattern. In case of the intra-block non-transform coding, predictive values of block and quantizing width are transmitted. Each block is adaptively selected with sub block of frame construction or sub block of field construction.

Video signal transmitting system in which digital video signal are divided into groups of predetermined frames. Digital video signals of at least one frame are intraframe coded and then transmitted. Remaining digital video signals are interframe coded with reference to the intraframe coded digital video signals, and intraframe coded digital video signals of a subsequent group of frames and are then transmitted. A motion vector from a predetermined reference frame is detected. Video signals are interframe coded by the motion vector to transmit the video signals. A motion vector from a first frame which is a plurality of frames away from the reference frame is converted to a motion vector for a one frame interval between the reference frame and the first frame. The motion vector is optimized, and is then transmitted.

A configuration is achieved in which content copying between media and content downloading are performed effectively and under strict management. In content copying between media, the identification information (medium ID) of a copying destination medium is obtained using an API for providing a predefined processing, then the obtained medium ID is transmitted to a server to obtain copying permission information from the server, and then content copying is performed under the management of the server. This configuration allows a copying destination medium to be managed, which can eliminate the unauthorized use of the content. Also, the configuration in which content downloading from the server is performed according to, for example, a Java® program allows a ROM disc on which the content is recorded to store the program and to be provided to a user.
摘要:
The present invention relates to an image processing device and method whereby an image and so forth that a contents producer intends can be displayed in a case where a stereoscopic image content is displayed as a 2D image.A generating unit 13 generates multiplexed data including viewpoint image data for the left eye, and viewpoint image data for the right eye that are two viewpoints of image data, and a view switching flag for specifying image data used for display of a 2D image, of the viewpoint image data for the left eye and the viewpoint image data for the right eye thereof. With decoding of multiplexed data, a view switching flag is extracted from the multiplexed data, and image data used for display of a 2D image is selected from viewpoint image data for the left eye and viewpoint image data for the right eye following the view switching flag thereof. The present invention may be applied to an encoding device or the like for encoding a stereoscopic vision image made up of a multiple-viewpoint image, for example.
摘要:
The present technology relates to an encoding device, an encoding method, a decoding device, and a decoding method capable of suppressing the amount of information without degrading the image quality of an image of a viewpoint that is used when the compatibility is secured in a case where a multi-viewpoint image is encoded. A compatible encoder generates a compatible stream by encoding an image A1 that is a compatible image. An image converting unit lowers the resolution of images B1 and C1 that are auxiliary images. An auxiliary encoder generates an encoded stream of the auxiliary image by encoding the auxiliary image of which the resolution is lowered. A multiplexing unit transmits the compatible stream and the encoded stream of the auxiliary image. The present technology can be applied to, for example, an encoding device that encodes a 3D image of the multi-viewpoint mode.
