Abstract: A 3-dimensional (3D) video receiver may be operable to convert a decompressed 3D video frame having a 3D video interlaced format to generate a first 3D video frame having a first 3D video progressive format by performing an inverse pulldown. The generated first 3D video frame having the first 3D video progressive format may be converted to generate a second 3D video frame having a second 3D video progressive format. The generated first 3D video frame having the first 3D video progressive format may be scaled to generate the second 3D video frame having the second 3D video progressive format. When the 3D video receiver is operating in an electronic program guide (EPG) mode or in a graphics over video mode, the generated second 3D video frame having the second 3D video progressive format may be blended with graphics.

The second 3D video frame comprising a 50Hz frame rate may be frame-rate upconverted to a third 3D video frame comprising a 60Hz frame rate.

Abstract: A 3-dimensional (3D) video receiver may be operable to scale a decompressed 3D video frame having a first 3D video progressive format to generate a 3D video frame having a second 3D video progressive format, where the second 3D video progressive format comprises a high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) format. When operating in an electronic program guide mode or a graphics over video mode, the 3D video frame having the second 3D video progressive format may be blended with graphics. The 3D video frame having the second 3D video progressive format may be converted to generate a 3D video frame having a 3D video interlaced format by performing a pulldown. The 3D video frame having the second 3D video progressive format at a 50 Hz frame rate may be frame-rate upconverted to generate a 3D video frame having a third 3D video progressive format at a 60 Hz frame rate.

Abstract: In one embodiment, there is presented an integrated circuit. The integrated circuit comprises a transport processor and a host processor. The transport processor parses a media stream. The host processor determines whether a media stream is Blu-ray or HD-DVD and configures the transport processor based on whether the media stream is Blu-ray or HD-DVD.
