Abstract

In order to prevent abnormal video output at the time of switching between a 2D program and a 3D program in a digital broadcasting receiving device, disclosed is a receiving device provided with a receiving unit for receiving a program content including video information, and identification information including information for identifying whether the program content is a 2D program content or a 3D program content, and an output unit for outputting the received program content in a 2D format or a 3D format. The output unit outputs a display for giving notice of switching when switching from the 2D video program content to the 3D video program content is detected by the identification information received by the receiving unit.

Claims (16)

1 . A reception device comprising:

a reception unit that receives program content containing video information and identification information containing information for identifying whether the program content is 2D program content or 3D program content; and

an output unit that outputs the received program content in a 2D format or 3D format,

wherein the output unit outputs, upon detecting switching from 2D video program content to 3D video program content from the identification information received by the reception unit, a display that notifies the switching.

2 . An output method comprising:

a receiving step of receiving program content containing video information and identification information containing information for identifying whether the program content is 2D program content or 3D program content; and

an outputting step of outputting the received program content in a 2D format or 3D format,

wherein in the outputting step, when switching from 2D video program content to 3D video program content is detected from the received identification information, a display is outputted which notifies the switching.

3 . A reception device comprising:

a reception unit that receives program content containing video information and identification information containing information for identifying whether the program content is 2D program content or 3D program content; and

an output unit that outputs the received program content in a 2D format or 3D format,

wherein the output unit makes switching from 3D format output to 2D format output when an end of the 3D video program content is identified from the identification information.

4 . An output method comprising:

a receiving step of receiving program content containing video information and identification information containing information for identifying whether the program content is 2D program content or 3D program content; and

an outputting step of outputting the received program content in a 2D format or 3D format,

wherein in the outputting step, switching is made from 3D format output to 2D format output when an end of the 3D video program content is identified from the identification information.
