Abstract:
1. A device for reproducing 3D (three-dimensional) images, the device comprising: a user input unit configured to receive a user input; a display unit; and a formatting unit configured to receive 3D image signal and convert the received 3D image signal to 3D image data to be displayed on the display unit, the 3D image signal being encoded according to one of a plurality of 3D signal formats and including a left eye image signal and a right eye image signal, wherein the formatting unit is further configured to convert the 3D image signal according to the plurality of 3D signal formats to a plurality of 3D format images, so that the plurality of 3D format image s representing the plurality of 3D signal formats, respectively, are displayed on the display unit for selection by a user, wherein each of the plurality of 3D format images is selectable by the user through the user input unit, wherein the user input unit is further configured to receive the user's selection of a 3D format image among the displayed plurality of 3D format images, and wherein the formatting unit is further configured to format the 3D image signal according to a particular 3D signal format corresponding to the selected 3D format image, so as to generate the 3D image data corresponding to the 3D image signal.
