摘要： An image processing method includes: receiving a disparity range setting which defines a target disparity range; receiving 3D image data with original disparity not fully within the target disparity range; receiving auxiliary graphical data with original disparity fully beyond the target disparity range; and generating modified 3D image data, including at least a modified portion with modified disparity fully within the target disparity range, by modifying at least a portion of the received 3D image data according to the obtained disparity range setting. At least the modified portion of the modified 3D image data is derived from at least the portion of the received 3D image data that has disparity overlapped with disparity of the received auxiliary graphical data. With the help of the disparity modification, the playback of the 3D image data may be protected from being obstructed by the display of the auxiliary graphical data.
