Patent Images
1. A data structure of metadata relevant to a moving image, comprising:
- a stream data structure including one or more access units each being a data unit capable of being independently processed, wherein each of the access unit includes;
first data to specify an effective period defined with respect to a time axis of the moving image;
object area data describing a spatio-temporal region in the moving image;
second data including one of or both of data to specify a display method relevant to the spatio-temporal region and data to specify a processing to be performed when the spatio-temporal region is specified; and
background object discrimination data to indicate whether the spatio-temporal region relates to a background object indicating a background of the moving image, and wherein when the background object discrimination data indicates the background object, the access unit does not include the object area data.

Abstract
In preparation for a case where a user indicates an area where an object does not exist, it is desired that an action for that case is also described in metadata. Then, layer value data indicating order of overlap of object area data on a screen or discrimination data intrinsic to an object area is described in each of access units. The access unit in which the layer value data or the discrimination data is a specific value, corresponds to “area where an object does not exist” at that time.
