Recording medium, playback device, integrated circuit
A base-view video stream and a dependent-view video stream are recorded on a BD-ROM. The base-view video stream includes picture data constituting a base view of a stereoscopic image. The dependent-view video stream includes offset metadata and picture data constituting a dependent view of the stereoscopic image. The offset metadata includes an offset sequence that defines an offset control of a plane memory when a graphics to be overlaid with the picture data is played back in a one-plane offset mode.
1. A receiving device for receiving data transmitted via a broadcast or via a network,
wherein the data includes a main-view video stream, a sub-view video stream, a graphics stream, and metadata,
the main-view video stream includes picture data of a main view of a stereoscopic image,
the sub-view video stream includes picture data of a sub view of the stereoscopic image,
the graphics stream includes graphics data,
the metadata is control information that defines an offset control for each of a plurality of rectangular areas that are obtained by dividing a screen, the offset control applying offsets of leftward and rightward directions to horizontal coordinates of a group of pixels constituting a rectangular area, when the graphics data is overlaid with the picture data of the main view and the picture data of the sub view, and
the receiving device comprises:
a video decoder operable to obtain the picture data of the main view and the picture data of the sub view by decoding the main-view video stream and the sub-view video stream;
a graphics decoder operable to obtain the graphics data by decoding the graphics stream; and
an overlay unit operable to overlay the graphics data with the picture data of the main view and the picture data of the sub view by applying offsets of leftward and rightward directions to the horizontal coordinates of the group of pixels constituting each rectangular area in accordance with the control information.
2. The receiving device of claim 1 , wherein
the metadata is included in the sub-view video stream.
3. The receiving device of claim 2 , wherein
the control information further includes information that defines directions of the offsets to be applied to each rectangular area, and
the overlay unit overlays the graphics data with the picture data of the main view and the picture data of the sub view by applying offsets of leftward and rightward directions to the horizontal coordinates in the graphics data in accordance with the control information.
4. The receiving device of claim 3 , wherein
each of the picture data included in the main-view video stream and the picture data included in the sub-view video stream represents a plurality of groups of pictures,
each group of pictures in the plurality of groups of pictures constitutes a plurality of frames, and the control information is a plurality of pieces of control information held as parameter sequences in one-to-one correspondence with the plurality of frames, and
the overlay unit overlays the graphics data with the picture data of the main view and the picture data of the sub view by applying offsets of leftward and rightward directions to the horizontal coordinates of the group of pixels constituting each rectangular area in accordance with the control information.
