1. A method for processing a light field of a three dimensional scene to he displayed on a three dimensional display device, in which the light field is acquired from a plurality of different views by a plurality of cameras, there being one view for each camera, and in which each view has an associated spatial resolution, comprising, the steps of: determining, in a decoder, a set of target views and an associated target spatial resolution for each target view according to a display parameterization of the three dimensional display device; and decoding, in the decoder, a scalable video bitstream to produce a decoded light field for the set of target views and the associated target spatial resolution for each target view, in which the scalable video bitstream is an encoded representation of the light field and has temporal dependencies and spatial dependencies.
