Previously, users could not be notified when the 3D mode type of a program being received by a digital broadcast receiver was not compatible with the digital broadcast receiver. A reception device is provided with: a reception unit which receives program content including video information and identification information including information for distinguishing whether the program content is 2D program content or 3D program content; and a display control unit which controls the display so as to display whether the aforementioned program content is 2D program content or 3D program content in response to the received aforementioned identification information.

A device and a method for determining a format of an immersive image and/or for rendering an immersive image are disclosed, wherein the device for determining a format of an immersive image includes one or more processors configured to: determine an aspect ratio of an immersive image and one or more additional characteristics of the immersive image; and determine a format of the immersive image using the determined aspect ratio and the determined one or more additional characteristics of the immersive image.

Disclosed are methods and apparatuses for image data encoding/decoding. A method of decoding an image includes receiving a bitstream in which the image is encoded; obtaining index information for specifying a block division type of a current block in the image; and determining the block division type of the current block from a candidate group pre-defined in the decoding apparatus. The candidate group includes a plurality of candidate division types, including at least one of a non-division, a first quad-division, a second quad-division, a binary-division or a triple-division. The method also includes dividing the current block into a plurality of sub-blocks; and decoding each of the sub-blocks with reference to syntax information obtained from the bitstream.
