Abstract:
A method for decoding an image according to the present invention comprises the steps of: receiving a bit stream; deriving decoding information by entropy-decoding the bit stream; and generating a restoration block corresponding to a decoding target block based on the decoding information. According to the present invention, the image encoding/decoding efficiency is improved and complexity can be reduced.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a video encoding method, to a video decoding method, and to an apparatus using same. The video encoding method according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises the steps of: determining a bit depth value per PCM sample for a current block to which a pulse coding modulation (PCM) is applied; and signaling information on the bit depth per PCM sample, wherein the information on the bit depth per PCM sample may contain the value of a difference with a reference value of the bit depth per PCM sample for the current block.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a method for inducing a prediction motion vector and an apparatus using the same. An image decoding method can include: a step of determining the information related to a plurality of spatial candidate prediction motion vectors from peripheral predicted blocks of a predicted target block; and a step of determining the information related to temporal candidate prediction motion vectors on the basis of the information related to the plurality of spatial candidate prediction motion vectors. Accordingly, the present invention can reduce complexity and can enhance coding efficiency when inducing the optimum prediction motion vector.
Abstract:
Disclosed are an apparatus and method for providing an adaptive HTTP streaming service using metadata for contents. The metadata includes minimum buffering time property indicating the minimum amount of media contents which are initially buffered. A terminal receives contents from a server before playing the contents and buffers the contents by at least the minimum amount. The metadata includes range properties indicating a target range to which a URL points. A terminal receives bytes from the URL which the range properties indicate, and plays the contents using the bytes.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for inserting scalability and view information into an MPEG-2 transport stream header. Scalability information or view information for scalable video or multi-view video, respectively present in a payload portion at a TS level, may be used when the scalable video or the multi-view video are transmitted via an MPEG-2 system. Using the scalability information or view information, TS-packetized scalable video or multi-view video may be efficiently adapted to terminals having various levels of performance, various network characteristics, and in accordance with a specific preference of a user.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a video summary description scheme for describing video summary by meta data. The video summary provides overview functionality, which makes feasible to understand overall contents of the original video within short time and navigation and browsing functionalities, which make feasible to search the desired video contents efficiently. According to the present invention the HierarchicalSummary Description Scheme (DS) comprises at least on HighlightLevel DS and selectively comprises the SummaryThemeList DS. The HightlightLevel DS describe highlight level an may have zero or at least one lower HighlightLevel DS. The HighlightLevel DS comprises one or more HighlightSegment DS which is describing highlight segment information constituting the video summary of the highlight level. The HighlightSegment DS comprises the VideoSegmentLocator DS for describing the time information of corresponding segment interval. Also, the HighlightSegment DS may comprise the ImageLocator DS for describing the representative image information of corresponding segment, the SoundLocator DS for describing the representative sound information, and the AudioSegmentLocator DS for describing the audio segment information constituting the audio summary.

Abstract:
A method and apparatus for an adaptive Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) streaming service using metadata of content are provided. The metadata may include a minBufferTime attribute indicating a minimum amount of initially buffered media content. A terminal may receive content from a server before playback of the content, and may buffer the content by at least the minimum amount. The metadata may include a range attribute that designates a range of a target indicated by a Uniform Resource Locator (URL). The terminal may receive bytes designated by the range attribute from the URL, and may play back the content using the received bytes.
