Claim 10:
11. An encoder for encoding information representing a multi-view video, comprising:
a prediction unit configured to encode information representing prediction coding of the multi-view video including data related to a first-view video and a second-view video,
wherein to encode the information, the prediction unit is configured to determine a disparity vector associated with a sub-region of a frame of the second-view video, the disparity vector indicating a displacement of the sub-region of the frame of the second-view video with respect to a corresponding frame of the first-view video; and
a data signal generator configured to insert the information including the disparity vector into a data stream, wherein data associated with a portion of the frame of the first-view video and a scaled disparity vector are used to synthesize a portion of a frame of a synthesized third-view video, and the scaled disparity vector is determined using the disparity vector and a scaling factor.
