Abstract

The invention concerns a method for the recording and reproduction of stereoscopic video images of scenes being observed, as well as a device for carrying out the method. The method makes it easier to record or reproduce images using conventional recording media. A half-image detection procedure is carried out before and/or after recording takes place to determine the association of a half-image with the corresponding frames of a left-hand or right-hand channel, or the association with each other of two frames in parallel channels.
