TRANSMISSION DEVICE, TRANSMISSION METHOD, AND RECEPTION DEVICE

摘要

A reception device with a 3D function can appropriately acquire corresponding disparity information together with data of overlapping information. A first private data stream (a 2D stream) including data of overlapping information and a second private data stream (a 3D extension stream) including disparity information are included in a multiplexed data stream. Association information associating the first private data stream with the second private data stream is included in the multiplexed data stream. For example, identification information which is common to descriptors describing information related to both of the streams is described as the association information. A reception device with a 3D function at a reception side can efficiently and appropriately extract and decode both of the streams based on the association information.
