METHOD, DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR TRANSMITTING MEDIA CONTENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18364229 titled 'METHOD, DEVICE, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM FOR TRANSMITTING MEDIA CONTENT

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for encapsulating encoded timed media data into multiple tracks within the same group. The media data consists of video sequences made up of full frames. The method involves providing descriptive information about the spatial relationship of different parts of a frame encapsulated in each track. This information indicates whether the region covered by these parts forms a full frame or not.

  • The method encapsulates encoded timed media data into at least two tracks within the same group.
  • The media data consists of one or more video sequences made up of full frames.
  • Descriptive information is provided for each track, indicating the spatial relationship of different parts of a frame encapsulated in the track.
  • The descriptive information is shared by all tracks within the same group.
  • The descriptive information determines whether the region covered by the parts in each track forms a full frame or not.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Video streaming platforms can use this method to efficiently encapsulate and transmit video sequences with multiple tracks.
  • Virtual reality and augmented reality applications can benefit from this method to synchronize and display different spatial parts of a frame.
  • Video editing software can utilize this method to manage and manipulate different parts of a frame separately.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Efficient encapsulation of timed media data into multiple tracks within the same group.
  • Synchronization and spatial relationship management of different parts of a frame.
  • Determining whether the combined parts in different tracks form a full frame or not.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved efficiency in encapsulating and transmitting video sequences.
  • Enhanced synchronization and display capabilities for virtual reality and augmented reality applications.
  • Better control and manipulation of different parts of a frame in video editing software.


Original Abstract Submitted

A method for encapsulating encoded timed media data into at least a first and a second track belonging to one same group of tracks, said media data corresponding to one or more video sequences made up of full frames. The method includes for at least first or second track providing descriptive information about the spatial relationship of a first spatial part of one frame encapsulated in the first track. A second spatial part of said frame encapsulated in the second track, wherein said descriptive information, shared by the tracks belonging to a same group of tracks, indicates whether the region, covered by both the first and the second spatial parts, forms a full frame or not.
