Abstract:
To reduce, at the time of transmittingdisparity information sequentially updated within a period during whichsuperimposing information is displayed, the data amount of the disparityinformation. A segment including disparity informationsequentially updated during a subtitle display period is transmitted. Atthe reception side, disparity to be provided between a left eye subtitle andright eye subtitle can be dynamically changed in conjunction with change in thecontents of the image. This disparity information is updated based on adisparity information value of a first frame, and a disparity information valueat a predetermined timing where an interval period has been multiplied by amultiple value. The amount of transmitted data can be reduced, and alsoat the reception side, the amount of memory for holding the disparityinformation can be greatly conserved.
Abstract:
Service compatibility with respect to a 2D TV is realized when transmitting frame compatible type stereoscopic image data. When the image data is frame compatible type stereoscopic image data, image region information for cropping image data for 2D display from the image data after decoding is inserted into a compressed video stream. In the 2D television receiving device (2D TV) of the receiving side,it is possible to crop image data for 2D display from the image data after decoding and to obtain 2D image data based on the image region information.
Abstract:
There is provided a transmission device including: a transmission unit that transmits a container in a predetermined format including a first component stream that has, as component data, transmission video data obtained by switching between a plurality of types of transmission video data, and a predetermined number of second component streams that have pieces of other component data; and an information insertion unit that inserts dynamic range information of the component data that each of the component streams has into the component streams.
Abstract:
A transmission apparatus configured to mix, at a mixing rate, pixels of first video data with pixels of peripheral frames of the first video data and obtain second video data at a first frame rate. The mixing rate for each pixel of a frame of the first video data is based on a luminance value of the pixel. The second video data includes frames having a second frame rate lower than the first frame rate. The apparatus encodes the frames having the second frame rate to obtain a basic stream and encodes remaining frames of the second video data to obtain an extended stream, inserts information about the mixing rate into the basic stream and the extended stream in association with each frame, and transmits the basic stream and the extended stream into which the information about the mixing rate has been inserted.
Abstract:
The technology is directed to keeping high image quality when a subtitle is superimposed on a video. A reception device includes circuitry configured to receive a video stream and a subtitle stream. The circuitry processes the video stream to obtain video data of a video. The circuitry processes the subtitle stream to obtain subtitle bitmap data of a subtitle bitmap image. The circuitry adjusts a color gamut of the subtitle bitmap data to a color gamut of the video data. The color gamut of the subtitle bitmap data is adjusted based on color gamut identification information of the subtitle bitmap data and color gamut identification information of the video data. The circuitry further superimposes, on the video, the color gamut adjusted subtitle bitmap image.
Abstract:
Multiple clients (viewers) are allowed to share their VR spaces for communication with one another. A server-distributed stream including a video stream obtained by encoding a background image is received from a server. A client-transmitted stream including representative image meta information for displaying a representative image of another client is received from another client apparatus. The video stream is decoded to obtain the background image. The image data of the representative image is generated on the basis of the representative image meta information. Display image data is obtained by synthesizing the representative image on the background image.
Abstract:
The luminance atmosphere that the creator intends is excellently reproduced on the receiving end. The transmission video data is obtained by applying a predetermined opto-electrical transfer function to the input video data. The transmission video data is transmitted together with the luminance conversion acceptable range information about a set region in the screen. For example, a transmitting unit transmits a video stream obtained by encoding the transmission video data while inserting the luminance conversion acceptable range information into a layer of the video stream. The receiving end obtains display video data by applying an electro-optical transfer function corresponding to the predetermined opto-electrical transfer function to the transmission video data, and performing a luminance conversion process in each of the set regions independently in accordance with the luminance conversion acceptable range information.

There is provided a transmission apparatus including: a processing unit that performs processing of mixing, at a mixing rate independent for each frame, image data in peripheral frames with image data in each frame of first moving image data at a first frame rate and obtains second moving image data at the first frame rate. At least image data in a frame corresponding to a second frame rate that is lower than the first frame rate in the image data in each frame that forms the second moving image data is brought into a state in which the image data is mixed with the image data in the peripheral frames.

Each of the plurality of types of the transmission video data has a different predetermined opto-electronic conversion characteristic. The circuitry is further configured to insert identification information into the video stream. The identification information indicates the type of one of the transmission video data included in the video stream.
