When a picture displayed on a client device is enlarged, the client device may be configured to insert new pixels between two adjacent pixels in the picture. When actual values of the new pixels are stored on a server, the client device may submit a request to the server for actual values of the new pixels. Responsive to the request, the server may first calculate interpolation values in accordance with the same interpolation algorithm and then calculate a difference value based on the interpolation values and the actual values stored on the server. If the calculated difference value is greater than a threshold value, the server may transmit the actual values for the new pixels to the client device. Otherwise, the server may instruct the client device to calculate the interpolation values.

An image pickup apparatus is equipped with a distance information calculator, a high frequency signal extractor, a focus assist signal generator, and a signal synthesizer. The distance information calculator calculates distance information of a video signal and generates an in-focus range signal from current focus information and the distance information. The high frequency signal extractor extracts a high frequency signal of the video signal. The focus assist signal generator generates a focus assist signal representing a focused region by using the high frequency signal and the in-focus range signal. The signal synthesizer synthesizes the focus assist signal with the video signal to generate a focus-assist-signal-added video signal.

An encoding device evaluates a plurality of processing and/or post-processing algorithms and/or methods to be applied to a video stream, and signals a selected method, algorithm, class or category of methods/algorithms either in an encoded bitstream or as side information related to the encoded bitstream.
