1. A decoder for reconstructing a multi-view signal from a data stream, comprising:
a data stream extractor configured to extract, using a processor from the data stream, a rendering flag associated with a renderable portion of a first view of the multi-view signal, the rendering flag being indicative of whether the renderable portion is to be replaced with a rendered portion generated, by view synthesis, based on a second view of the multi-view signal; and
a reconstructor configured to reconstruct, using the processor, at least a portion of the first view,
wherein the decoder is configured to decode in a first coding mode or a second coding mode depending on the rendering flag, wherein the decoder is configured to, in the first coding mode, render, by view synthesis, the renderable portion of the first view from the second view to generate the rendered portion and replace the renderable portion of a reconstructed first view by the rendered portion.
