Image processing device, information recording medium, image processing medium, and program

Abstract

To provide a configuration where it is possible to confirm three-dimensional image information such as whether or not three-dimensional image data is included in an MP4 file by referencing management information of the MP4 file. There is a configuration where three-dimensional image management information such as three-dimensional image identification information which relates to whether or not three-dimensional image data is included in the MP4 file and three-dimensional image details information which is able to identify a recording method and the like of three-dimensional images is recorded in a profile box or an AV codec box of the MP4 file as management information. Accordingly, a device which acquires the MP4 file and attempts to carry out reproduction is able to confirm whether or not three-dimensional images are included in the image data which is stored in the MP4 file and further the method thereof by referencing the three-dimensional image management information which is recorded in the management information of the MP4 file, is able to determine the possibility of reproduction, and is able to smoothly execute decoding and reproduction processes which are appropriate for each three-dimensional image method.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing device, an information recording medium, an image processing method, and a program. More specifically, the present invention relates to an image processing device, an information recording medium, an image processing method, and a program that perform image recording and reproduction related to three-dimensional image (3D image) display. Background technique [0002] In order to generate images of so-called three-dimensional images (also referred to as 3D images or stereoscopic images) that can be viewed stereoscopically, images captured from different viewpoints, ie, left-eye images and right-eye images are required. A three-dimensional image can be displayed using these images taken from different viewpoints. [0003] There are various methods in terms of three-dimensional image (3D image) display methods. For example, there is a display method corresponding to a passive glasses method in which i...

Problems solved by technology

[0009] However, in the management information specification of the current MP4 format, there is a problem that a storage area for information for distinguishing whether an image stored in an MP4 file is a three-dimensional (3D) image or a two-dimensional (2D) image is not specified

As a result, for example, there arises a problem that three-dimensional image data is erroneously displayed in a display device that does not have a three-dimensional image display function

Therefore, only with the management information according to the current MP4 format, it may not be possible to confirm whether it is a three-dimensional image that can be reproduced or displayed on the device itself

[0012] That is, there is a problem that it may not be possible to confirm whether or not it is data that can be processed by the device itself using only the management information according to the current MP4 file without confirming the data configuration by obtaining image data or actually performing reproduction or display processing
