Abstract:
1. A video transfer system comprising: a time value generator that outputs a time value; a plurality of display object video picture encoders each of which encodes a frame of a display object video picture, and assigns to the frame a reproducing time value coinciding with a time value at the time of encoding; a reference video picture encoder that encodes a frame of a reference video picture, and assigns to the frame a reproducing time value coinciding with a time value at the time of encoding; a multiplexer that multiplexes the encoded frames of the display object video pictures and the reference video picture to generate a multiplexed stream; a plurality of display object video picture decoders each of which extracts the frame of the display object video picture from the multiplexed stream, and decodes the frame; and a synchronization signal generating device that extracts the reference video picture from the multiplexed stream, and generates a synchronization signal using the reference video picture, wherein each display object video picture decoder includes: a time value generator that outputs a time value; a decoding unit that decodes the extracted frame of the display object video picture, and outputs the decoded frame when the time value coincides with the reproducing time value in the extracted frame; and an output unit that outputs the decoded frame outside when the synchronization signal is output from the synchronization signal generating device, and the synchronization signal generating device includes: a time value generator that outputs a time value; and a synchronization signal generator that adds a predetermined value to the time value, and outputs a synchronization signal to the each display object video picture decoder when the added time value coincides with the reproducing time value in the extracted frame of the reference video picture.
