Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a media distribution device, a media distribution method, and a program enabling to generate a guide voice more appropriately. A media distribution device includes a guide voice generation unit that generates a guide voice describing a rendered image viewed from a viewpoint in a virtual space by using a scene description as information describing a scene in the virtual space and a user viewpoint information indicating a position and a direction of the viewpoint of a user; and an audio encoding unit that mixes the guide voice with original audio, and encodes the guide voice. The present technology can be applied to, for example, a media distribution system that distributes 6DoF media.
