<p>The purpose is to send a plurality of view streams for a multiview service in a satisfactory manner. A multiplexed stream containing a plurality of multiplexed view streams is transmitted by a transmission section. At this time, a time stamp assignment section assigns to the plurality of view streams decode time stamps at subdivided intervals of the display cycle. The plurality of view streams are streams for display of three-dimensional images, for example. Because the plurality of view streams within the multiplexed stream have been assigned decode time stamps at subdivided intervals of the display cycle, the decoding order and reference relationships among views are assured, and the decoding process at the receiving end can take place smoothly without fail.</p> |
