摘要:
An encoding device evaluates a plurality of processing and/or post-processing algorithms and/or methods to be applied to a video stream, and signals a selected method, algorithm, class or category of methods/algorithms either in an encoded bitstream or as side information related to the encoded bitstream. A decoding device or post-processor utilizes the signaled algorithm or selects an algorithm/method based on the signaled method or algorithm. The selection is based, for example, on availability of the algorithm/method at the decoder/post-processor and/or cost of implementation. The video stream may comprise, for example, downsampled multiplexed stereoscopic images and the selected algorithm may include any of upconversion and/or error correction techniques that contribute to a restoration of the downsampled images.

Encoding and decoding architectures for 3D video delivery are described, such as 2D compatible 3D video delivery and frame compatible 3D video delivery. The architectures include pre-processing stages to pre-process the output of a base layer video encoder and/or decoder and input the pre-processed output into an enhancement layer video encoder and/or decoder of one or more enhancement layers. Multiplexing methods of how to combine the base and enhancement layer videos are also described.
摘要:
Video data that represents two or more views is coded. The regions of the views are asymmetrically processed according to different coding patterns. Techniques that impose asymmetry at the region level, but at the same time may consider overall/average symmetry or significantly reduced asymmetry at the picture/view level are presented.
摘要:
A multimedia coding and decoding system and method is presented that uses the specific prediction mode to signal supplemental information, e.g., metadata, while considering and providing trade offs between coding performance and metadata capacity. The prediction mode can be encoded according to a mode table that relates mode to bits and by considering coding impact. Start and stop codes can be used to signal the message, while various techniques of how to properly design the mode to bits tables are presented.

A video signal processing system uses a sequence of interpolation filters to resample a 125M video signal to produce a 244M signal. In addition, the system allows an operator to specify a desired subcarrier-to-horizontal sync (SCH) phase and a desired horizontal position. The system automatically adjusts the starting point in the sequence of filters used for the resampling operation to implement each of the requested phase shifts.

A video signal conversion system converts input video signals in a studio format, such as CCIR 601 (625/25), into output video signals in another format, such as the Phase Alternate Line (PAL) format. The horizontal line scanning frequency of the input and output signals is the same. The signal conversion system uses an output clock signal to determine the relative timing of the input and output video signals. This signal is generated by a phase-locked loop which employs a crystal-controlled VCO. The phase of the signal produced by the VCO is adjusted to maintain the sampling clock signals of the input and output video signals in a predetermined phase relationship. The phase error signal which is used to control the VCO is generated by comparing a first phase reference signal, generated from the output signal, to a second phase reference signal generated from the input signal. The output phase reference signal may be the synchronizing signal component of the converted video signal or an indication that a predetermined interpolation phase is being applied by the resampling system. The input phase reference signal may be the input clock signal or an indication of the start of a horizontal line interval.

A system for converting a digital component video signal having timing information contained therein to a digital composite video signal is described. The system has a decoder for extracting the timing information from the digital component signal, a digital memory means for storing portions of the desired digital composite signal, a memory control means for extracting the portions of said desired signal from the digital memory means in response to the timing information and a multiplexing means for combining the portions of the signal extracted from the digital memory in response to timing information of the digital component signal.
