The "depth" is defined in discrete pixel values in the BD SEI, ie. the
offset to move it left/right for each eye, so it doesn't have a direct
meaning of "depth", but just instructions on how to render it.
Note that the way this is implemented on Blu-rays, the depth can
change from frame to frame. Every GOP has a new SEI block which
includes one offset for every frame in the SEI, so its controlled on a
frame level, not a scene/GOP level.
