Abstract
Methods and systems for stereoscopic 3D video are described. Input HDR stereoscopic views in a first codeword representation are merged together by a first merging function to generate an input merged view to optimize a reshaping operation which generates a reshaped merged view in a second codeword representation and associated composer metadata. The reshaped merged view may be split and re-merged by a second frame packing function to optimize video encoding efficiency of an output coded bitstream based on the reshaped merged view. In a decoder, after extracting the reshaped merged view from the coded bitstream, a composer function applies the composer metadata to the decoded reshaped merge view to generate an output merged view in the first codeword representation. Then it generates output HDR stereoscopic views based on the output merged view.
