Method and system for 3d video format conversion with inverse telecine

Abstract

A 3-dimensional (3D) video receiver may be operable to convert a decompressed 3D video frame having a 3D video interlaced format to generate a first 3D video frame having a first 3D video progressive format by performing an inverse pulldown. The generated first 3D video frame having the first 3D video progressive format may be converted to generate a second 3D video frame having a second 3D video progressive format. The generated first 3D video frame having the first 3D video progressive format may be scaled to generate the second 3D video frame having the second 3D video progressive format. When the 3D video receiver is operating in an electronic program guide (EPG) mode or in a graphics over video mode, the generated second 3D video frame having the second 3D video progressive format may be blended with graphics.
