Abstract:
Method and device for synchronizing reference image and supplementary image in real-time broadcast program. The present invention provides a synchronization method for: calculating a time difference between a current frame of a reference image and a reference time stamp on the basis of the reference time stamp, which is contained in a program level descriptor and indicates a start time of a frame regarding a reference image; and adjusting synchronization between the frame regarding the reference image and a frame regarding a supplementary image by using the time difference. Since synchronous time information is signaled together with a stream delivered in real time, synchronization between a stored supplementary image and a reference image transmitted in real time is enabled even though a first PMT of a time when a stereoscopic video service is started is not received or a packet error is generated. Thus, the invention can provide a stable stereoscopic image service
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method of synchronizing a reference image with an additional image of a real-time broadcasting program, the method comprising the steps of: generating at least one frame having a predetermined identifier for providing notice of the start time of the reference image to a receiver in advance; and transmitting at least one frame having the predetermined identifier to the receiver. Alternatively, the method of synchronizing a reference image with an additional image of a real-time broadcasting program comprises the steps of: generating signaling information containing additional image interlocking information at a transmission side in order to prepare for the additional image interlocked with the reference image of the real-time broadcasting program at a reception side in advance; and providing the signaling information to the receiver. Therefore, it is possible to accurately and effectively perform the synchronization of a 3D reference image of the real-time broadcasting program with a 3D additional image stored in the receiver or a streamed 3D additional image.

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zum Synchronisieren eines Referenzbilds mit einem Zusatzbild eines Echtzeit-Rundfunkprogramms, wobei das Verfahren die folgenden Schritte umfasst: Erzeugen wenigstens eines Einzelbilds mit einer vorgegebenen Kennung, um für einen Empfänger im Voraus eine Mitteilung über die Anfangszeit des Referenzbilds bereitzustellen; und Übertragen wenigstens eines Einzelbilds mit der vorgegebenen Kennung an den Empfänger. Alternativ umfasst das Verfahren zum Synchronisieren eines Referenzbilds mit einem Zusatzbild eines Echtzeit-Rundfunkprogramms die folgenden Schritte: Erzeugen von Signalisierungsinformationen, die Zusatzbildverriegelungsinformationen enthalten, auf einer Sendeseite, um auf der Empfangsseite im Voraus auf das mit dem Referenzbild verriegelte Zusatzbild des Echtzeit-Rundfunkprogramms vorzubereiten; und Bereitstellen der Signalisierungsinformationen für den Empfänger. Somit ist es möglich, die Synchronisation eines 3D-Referenzbilds des Echtzeit-Rundfunkprogramms mit einem in dem Empfänger gespeicherten 3D-Zusatzbild oder mit einem gestreamten 3D-Zusatzbild genau und effizient auszuführen.
