20080225653 | Method for Storing Information on a Storage Medium - A method for recording a movie ( | 09-18-2008 |
20090125823 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DISPLAYING VIRTUAL OBJECTS - A user device has a read head ( | 05-14-2009 |
20100183282 | METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CONTROLLING ACCESS TO CONTENT - The present invention relates to a method of controlling access to content comprising the steps of receiving content having a first content rating associated therewith for controlling access to the content, receiving a request to associate a second content rating with an attribute of the content for controlling access to the content, saving the second content rating in such a way that the second content rating is associated with the attribute of the content for controlling access to the content. This is useful in all disc players such as HD-DVD, Blu-ray disc players that enable playback of content. | 07-22-2010 |
20100303442 | 3D MODE SELECTION MECHANISM FOR VIDEO PLAYBACK - The invention relates to a signal comprising video information and associated playback information, the video information and associated playback information being organized according to a playback format, the video information comprising a primary video stream for two-dimensional (2D) display, and an additional information stream for enabling three-dimensional (3D) display, wherein that the associated playback information comprises display information indicating the types of display possible. The invention also relates to a method and device for playback of such a signal, the method comprising receiving the video information and the associated playback information, processing the display information to determine that both two-dimensional (2D) display possible and three-dimensional (3D) display are possible for the received video information; determining a playback setting of a playback device indicating whether the video information should be displayed two-dimensional (2D) or three dimensional (3D); and processing for display either the primary video stream or the primary video stream and the additional information stream, in accordance with the playback setting of the playback device. | 12-02-2010 |
20110128351 | 3D DISPLAY HANDLING OF SUBTITLES - A method of creating a three-dimensional image signal comprises receiving a first image component, receiving a second component for creating a three-dimensional image in combination with the first image component, receiving a text component for including in the three-dimensional image, receiving a data component comprising location information describing the location of the text component within the three-dimensional image, and creating a three-dimensional image signal comprising the first image component, the second component, the text component, and the data component. The signal is rendered by rendering a three-dimensional image from the first image component and the second component, the rendering including rendering the text component in the three-dimensional image, the rendering of the text component including adjusting three-dimensional parameters of the three-dimensional image in the location of the rendered text component. | 06-02-2011 |
20110292189 | 3D DISPLAY HANDLING OF SUBTITLES - A non-transitory three-dimensional image signal includes a first image component, a second component for creating a three-dimensional image in combination with the first image component, and a text component that includes text-based subtitles and/or presentation graphics-based bitmap images for including in the three-dimensional image. A shared Z-location component includes Z-location information describing the depth location of the text component within the three-dimensional image. The signal is rendered by rendering the three-dimensional image from the first image component and the second component. The rendering includes rendering the text-based subtitles and/or presentation graphics-based bitmap images in the three-dimensional image. Further, the rendering of the text component includes adjusting the depth location of the text-based subtitles and/or presentation graphics-based bitmap images based on the shared Z-location component. The Z-location for both text-based and presentation-graphics-based subtitles may be the same and only needs to be stored once per stream. | 12-01-2011 |
20120120194 | SWITCHING BETWEEN 3D VIDEO AND 2D VIDEO - A three dimensional [3D] video signal is processed in a video device ( | 05-17-2012 |
20140294359 | 3D MODE SELECTION MECHANISM FOR VIDEO PLAYBACK - The invention relates to a signal comprising video information and associated playback information, the video information and associated playback information being organized according to a playback format, the video information comprising a primary video stream for two-dimensional (2D) display, and an additional information stream for enabling three-dimensional (3D) display, wherein that the associated playback information comprises display information indicating the types of display possible. The invention also relates to a method and device for playback of such a signal, the method comprising receiving the video information and the associated playback information, processing the display information to determine that both two-dimensional (2D) display possible and three-dimensional (3D) display are possible for the received video information; determining a playback setting of a playback device indicating whether the video information should be displayed two-dimensional (2D) or three dimensional (3D); and processing for display either the primary video stream or the primary video stream and the additional information stream, in accordance with the playback setting of the playback device. | 10-02-2014 |
