Abstract:
A method and an apparatus for an adaptive Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) streaming service using metadata on media content are disclosed. The media content includes a series of one or more periods. Each period may include one or more representations. The metadata may include information describing a relationship between the representations and information for terminals having different display bit depths.
Abstract:
Provided is a method and apparatus for outputting an additional image independently of a reference image in a broadcasting receiver including a communicator to receive a stream of an additional image of a three-dimensional (3D) broadcast in non-real time, and receive a stream of a reference image of the 3D broadcast in real-time and a processor to generate a 3D image of the 3D broadcast based on the stream of the additional image and the stream of the reference image.
Abstract:
A method of providing a realistic broadcasting image including an ultra high definition (UHD) image, the method including generating a first encoding stream from a high definition (HD) image, generating a second encoding stream from at least one of a UHD image and an image restored from the first encoding stream, generating a third encoding stream from at least one of the UHD image and an image restored from the second encoding stream, generating a first transmission stream by applying at least one of packetization, synchronization, and multiplying to the first encoding stream and the second encoding stream, generating a second transmission stream by applying at least one of packetization and synchronization to the third encoding stream, transmitting the first transmission stream via a first transmission channel, and transmitting the second transmission stream via a second transmission channel having a lower transmission capacity than the first transmission channel.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are a video encoding/decoding method and apparatus. The video decoding method according to the present disclosure includes: when a current picture is composed of a plurality of tiles and a current tile among the plurality of tiles is partitioned into a plurality of slices, decoding information on the number of slices in tile that indicates the number of the plurality of slices comprised in the current tile; decoding information on a slice height in tile that indicates a height of the plurality of slices comprised in the current tile; and determining the number of the plurality of slices comprised in the current tile and a height of the plurality of slices comprised in the current tile.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an image encoding method using a skip mode and a device using the method. The image encoding method may comprise the steps of: judging whether there is residual block data of a prediction target block on the basis of predetermined data indicating whether residual block data has been encoded; and, if there is residual block data, restoring the prediction target block on the basis of the residual block data and an intra-screen predictive value of the prediction target block. Consequently, encoding and decoding efficiency can be increased by carrying out the encoding and decoding of screen residual data only for prediction target blocks where there is a need for a residual data block in accordance with screen similarity.

Abstract:
An MPEG media transport (MMT) apparatus and method for processing stereoscopic video data are provided. The MMT apparatus includes an asset file generator configured to generate a single asset file that contains an entire or part of the stereoscopic video data; and a signaling message generator configured to generate a signaling message for delivery or consumption of the stereoscopic video data. At least one of the generated single asset file and the generated signaling message contains stereoscopic video information related to the stereoscopic video data.
Abstract:
Disclosed is a method and apparatus for providing an omni-directional stereoscopic image based on layer projection. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, there is provided a method of providing an omni-directional stereoscopic image based on layer projection, the method including: obtaining a spatial-information-point set; and generating a layer image based on a spatial-information-point subset constructed for each of multiple layers, the layer image corresponding to each of the multiple layers, wherein the spatial-information-point subset constructed for each of two consecutive layers includes one or more duplicate spatial information points.
Abstract:
Provided is a method of supporting a random access of MPEG data, the method including: obtaining at least one access unit including media data coded through processing including an encapsulation and a packetization; generating at least one media processing unit (MPU) by grouping at least one access unit; determining an initialization flag indicating whether the at least one access unit includes all of data required for initialization of a decoding process, in the at least one MPU; and inserting the initialization flag into a header of the at least one MPU.
Abstract:
A broadcasting transmitting apparatus of providing a multi-picture may include a multi-picture generator configured to divide an acquired video into a first video and a second video; a first video encoder configured to encode the first video; a second video encoder configured to encode the second video; a multiplexer configured to multiplex the first and second videos to a single stream video; and a transmitter configured to modulate the multiplexed single stream video to transmit the modulated single stream video to a receiving apparatus through a broadcasting network.
