US Patent 11394920 Transmission device, transmission method, reception device, and reception method

The present technology ensures that electrooptical conversion processing for transmission video data obtained using an HDR optoelectrical conversion characteristic is favorably carried out at a receiving side. The transmission video data is obtained by performing high dynamic range optoelectrical conversion on high dynamic range video data. A video stream is obtained by applying encoding processing to this transmission video data. A container in a predetermined format including this video stream is transmitted. Meta information indicating an electrooptical conversion characteristic corresponding to a high dynamic range optoelectrical conversion characteristic is inserted into a parameter set field in the video stream.
