Coding apparatus, coding method, transmission apparatus, and reception apparatus
A reception apparatus includes circuitry that receives a plurality of video streams including coded image data in each of a first and second hierarchy sets. The first hierarchy set corresponds to image data for an enhanced frame rate and includes a highest hierarchy of the plurality of hierarchies, and the second hierarchy set corresponds to image data for a base frame rate and includes all hierarchies of the plurality of hierarchies other than the highest hierarchy. The circuitry decodes the coded image data only in the first hierarchy set in the plurality of video streams or the coded image data in both of the first and second hierarchy sets in the plurality of video streams to acquire decoded image data of pictures having the enhanced frame rate or the base frame rate. The circuitry increases or decrease a frame rate of the decoded image data based on a display capability.
