Abstract
In a digital contents receiver for receiving transmitted digital contents, the digital contents include at least component information indicating an element which constitutes a program of the contents. When the component information indicates that the received digital contents are a 3D component, it is determined whether a display part corresponds to display of the 3D component. If the display part corresponds to display of the 3D component, the received digital contents are displayed in 3D.
Claims5
A content outputting apparatus comprising:
- a network interface configured to receive video content and content information including information which identifies whether video content to be transmitted via network for next viewing by a viewer includes three-dimensional video content;
- a video processing unit configured to change video processing of video content, and
- an outputting unit configured to output video content in three-dimensional viewing format or in two-dimensional viewing format, wherein,
- in response to determining that the received content information indicates that the video content to be transmitted for next viewing includes three-dimensional video content, the outputting unit is configured to output indication information indicating the video content to be transmitted for next viewing includes three-dimensional video content, and requesting viewer-determination of whether the video content to be transmitted for next viewing is to be viewed in three-dimensional view or in two-dimensional view, and
- the video processing unit configured to change video processing of the video content to be viewed next according to the viewer-determination.
A video processing method comprising:
- receiving content information including information which identifies whether a video content to be transmitted via network for next viewing includes a three-dimensional video content;
- outputting indication information informing the video content to be transmitted for next viewing includes a three-dimensional video content, and
- requesting viewer-determination of whether the video content to be transmitted for next viewing is to be viewed in three-dimensional view or in two-dimensional view, upon determining that the content information indicating that the video content to be transmitted for next viewing includes a three-dimensional video content;
- receiving an operation instruction command corresponding to the viewer-determination;
- outputting the video content that is processed according to the operation instruction command.
A video processing method in an outputting apparatus which outputs video content to a display, the video processing method comprising:
- receiving content information including information which identifies whether video content to be transmitted via network for next viewing by a viewer includes three-dimensional video content and information which identifies a three-dimensional method of the video content;
- outputting indication information indicating the video content to be transmitted for next viewing includes three-dimensional video content, and requesting viewer-determination of whether the video content to be transmitted for next viewing is to be viewed in three-dimensional view or in two-dimensional view, upon determining that the content information indicating that the video content to be transmitted for next viewing includes three-dimensional video content;
- receiving an operation instruction command corresponding to the viewer-determination;
- outputting the video content processed by three-dimensional video processing, upon determining that the operation instruction command instructing the video content to be viewed in three-dimensional view and that the display, to which the video content is to be outputted from the outputting unit, is capable of displaying a three-dimensional method identified in the content information.
