The decapsulation processor (file/segment decapsulation module) 10007 may decapsulate the point cloud video data received in the form of a file from the reception processor. The decapsulation processor may decapsulate the files according to ISOBMFF or the like, and may acquire a point cloud video bitstream or point cloud video-related metadata (a metadata bitstream). The acquired point cloud video bitstream may be delivered to the point cloud video decoder, and the acquired point cloud video-related metadata (metadata bitstream) may be delivered to the metadata processor. The point cloud video bitstream may include the metadata (metadata bitstream). The metadata processor may be included in the point cloud video decoder or may be configured as a separate component/module. The point cloud video-related metadata acquired by the decapsulation processor may take the form of a box or a track in the file format. The decapsulation processor may receive metadata necessary for decapsulation from the metadata processor, when necessary. The point cloud video-related metadata may be delivered to the point cloud video decoder and used in a point cloud video decoding procedure, or may be transferred to the renderer and used in a point cloud video rendering procedure.
