Conclussions
Semi-automatic DERS is better than automatic DERS
Still more key frames is needed to achieve better quality

Summary Quality of synthesized view depends more on quality of
compressed/decompressed image (QP parameter) than on quality of compressed/decompressed depth (QD).
The usual approach of choosing the minimal QP does not give the best results in some cases, but the differences of quality measures are neglible.
When quality of synthesized view is calculated with original view as a reference, no quality improvement is observed when increasing bitrate from 3 Mbps to 6Mbps in terms of PSNR, PSNR (pspnr) and PSPNR.
Quality of synthesized views (PSNR as well as PSPNR) increases, when measured with reference synthesized from uncompressed data in the similar way as for 2D sequences – approximately constant increase of quality for increase of bitrate by a factor of two.
