METHOD AND DEVICE FOR TRANSITIONING BETWEEN AN IMAGE OF A FIRST VIDEO SEQUENCE AND AN IMAGE OF A SECOND VIDEO SEQUENCE

A method for transitioning between an image of a first video sequence and an image of a second video sequence, wherein an image of the video sequences corresponds to one sub-region of a respective image of the other video sequence, receiving one image from the first video sequence; providing, from the one image, one pre-transition image; for each one pre-transition image: determining a confidence region within the one pre-transition image based on a set of confidence values, each confidence value representing, for a respective block of the one pre-transition image, the level of reliability of determining one or more blocks of a corresponding image in the second video sequence; computing a transition image corresponding to the second video sequence, the transition image being a function of the determined confidence region of the pre-transition image; and displaying the transition image for a duration upon the reception of the second video sequence.
