<p>[Object] To provide a data structure that allows transmission of disparity information for restricted use, such as closed caption information, and that is capable of being easily coordinated with the existing broadcast standards. [Solution] A CC encoder 133 outputs CC data for displaying a caption with a closed caption. A disparity information creation unit 132 outputs disparity information related with each Window ID included in the CC data. A stream formatter 113a embeds the CC data and the disparity information in a user data area of a header portion of a video elementary stream so that the CC data and the disparity information can be identified by user data identification information. The disparity information has added thereto instruction information instructing which of the left eye and the right eye is to be subjected to shifting on the basis of the disparity information. Also, the disparity information is either configured to be commonly used in individual frames during a display period of closed caption information or configured to be sequentially updated during the individual periods, and has added thereto identification information thereabout.</p> |
