Method, System and Computer Program Product for Switching Between 2D and 3D Coding of a Video Sequence of Images

摘要

A video sequence of images includes at least first and second images. In response to at least first and second conditions being satisfied, an encoding mode is switched between two-dimensional video coding and three-dimensional video coding. The first condition is that the second image represents a scene change in comparison to the first image. The second image is encoded according to the switched encoding mode.
