The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus and method capable of suppressing an increase in a load of a reproduction process. A scene description file that describes a scene of 3D object content is generated, the scene description file including information associated with Media Presentation Description (MPD) that stores metadata of the 3D object content distributed by using Moving Picture Experts Group Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (MPEG DASH) and information regarding encoding of Representation included in Adaptation Set in the MPD. Furthermore, the scene description file is analyzed, the 3D object content to be decoded is selected on the basis of the information regarding the encoding of the Representation, and the encoded data of the selected 3D content is decoded. The present disclosure can be applied to, for example, an information processing apparatus, an information processing method, or the like.

The present invention provides a digital broadcast receiver capable of executing functions having higher added values. The broadcast receiver receives a broadcast wave of a digital broadcast service, controls an operation including activation and end of an application that is in cooperation with a broadcast program based on application-related information, and selects control relating to reactivation of the application based on a user's operation. If activation of the application is requested after the end of the application, the broadcast receiver controls the reactivation or non-reactivation of the application in accordance with the selection of control by the user.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods are described for analyzing video content to detect and/or prioritize objects in the video content to determine placement of an overlay object that obscures a portion of the video content. The video content may be analyzed to determine areas of the video content to obscure, for example, by determining objects in the video content that have high priority to remain unobscured. Overlay objects that obscure video content may be placed over areas of low importance to the video content, for example, to enhance a viewer's experience of the content.
