Abstract
A method of creating a bitstream comprises receiving video data, receiving auxiliary data, translating the auxiliary data according to a defined scheme, encoding the translated auxiliary data as one or more video frames, each frame substantially consisting of the encoded translated auxiliary data, and combining the video data and the encoded video frames into a bitstream. A device for carrying out the creation of the bitstream is disclosed, along with a corresponding handling method and device arranged to receive the bitstream.
Claims20
A method of creating a bitstream comprising:
- receiving video data,

(canceled)
A device for creating a bitstream comprising:
- a video buffer arranged to receive video data,
- a storage device arranged to receive auxiliary data,
- a processor arranged to translate said auxiliary data according to a defined scheme and to encode the translated auxiliary data as one or more video frames,
- a video frame substantially consisting of the encoded translated auxiliary data, and
- a transmitter arranged to combine the video data and the encoded video frames into a bitstream.
13-18. (canceled)
A method of handling a bitstream comprising:
- receiving a bitstream, said bitstream comprising a plurality of encoded video frames, and
- executing an extraction process on the video frames, each a video frame substantially consisting of encoded translated auxiliary data, the extraction process comprising decoding the auxiliary data from the video frames.
20-21. (canceled)
A system for handling a bitstream comprising:
- a receiver arranged to receive a bitstream, said bitstream comprising a plurality of encoded video frames,
- a video decoder arranged to decode the video frames,
- a display device arranged to display the video frames, and
- a processor arranged to execute an extraction process on the video frames, each frame substantially consisting of encoded translated auxiliary data, the extraction process comprising decoding the auxiliary data from the video frames.
