Signaling for Addition or Removal of Layers in Scalable Video
First Claim
1. A method of signaling individual layers in a transport stream, the method comprising:
- determining a plurality of layers in a transport stream, wherein each layer includes a respective transport stream parameter setting;
determining an additional layer for the plurality of layers in the transport stream, wherein the additional layer enhances one or more of the plurality of layers including a base layer and the respective layer parameter settings for the plurality of layers do not take into account the additional layer; and
determining an additional transport stream parameter setting for the additional layer, the additional transport stream parameter setting specifying a relationship between the additional layer and at least a portion of the plurality of layers, wherein the additional transport stream parameter setting is used to decode the additional layer and the at least a portion of the plurality of layers.

Abstract
In one embodiment, a method of signaling individual layers in a transport stream includes: determining a plurality of layers in a transport stream, wherein each layer includes a respective transport stream parameter setting; determining an additional layer for the plurality of layers in the transport stream, wherein the additional layer enhances one or more of the plurality of layers including a base layer and the respective layer parameter settings for the plurality of layers do not take into account the additional layer; and determining an additional transport stream parameter setting for the additional layer, the additional transport stream parameter setting specifying a relationship between the additional layer and at least a portion of the plurality of layers, wherein the additional transport stream parameter setting is used to decode the additional layer and the at least a portion of the plurality of layers.

12. An apparatus comprising:
-
one or more computer processors; and a computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to; determine a plurality of layers in a transport stream, wherein each layer includes a respective transport stream parameter setting; determine an additional layer for the plurality of layers in the transport stream, wherein the additional layer enhances one or more of the plurality of layers including a base layer and the respective layer parameter settings for the plurality of layers do not take into account the additional layer; determine an additional transport stream parameter setting for the additional layer, the additional transport stream parameter setting specifying a relationship between the additional layer and at least a portion of the plurality of layers, wherein the additional transport stream parameter setting is used to decode the additional layer and the at least a portion of the plurality of layers; and send the at least portion of the plurality of layers and the additional layer to a decoder along with respective transport stream parameter settings for the at least portion of the plurality of layers and the additional transport stream parameter setting. - View Dependent Claims (13, 14, 15, 16, 17)

18. An apparatus comprising:
-
one or more computer processors; and a computer readable storage medium comprising instructions that, when executed, cause the one or more processors to; receive a plurality of layers in a transport stream, wherein each layer includes a respective transport stream parameter setting; receive an additional layer for the plurality of layers in the transport stream, wherein the additional layer enhances one or more of the plurality of layers including a base layer and the respective layer parameter settings for the plurality of layers do not take into account the additional layer; receive an additional transport stream parameter setting for the additional layer, the additional transport stream parameter setting specifying a relationship between the additional layer and at least a portion of the plurality of layers, wherein the additional transport stream parameter setting is used to decode the additional layer and the at least a portion of the plurality of layers; and decode the at least a portion of the plurality of layers and the additional layer using the respective transport stream parameter settings for the at least a portion of the plurality of layers and the additional transport stream parameter setting. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20)
