Zusammenfassung:	The present invention relates to a method for combining images of a graphic user interface with a stereoscopic video content. The latter comprises at least a pair of video images intended respectively for a right and a left eye, while the graphic user interface comprises at least a pair of graphic images. The method comprises the steps of generating combined video images by blending each video image of said pair of video images with a respective graphic image of said pair of graphic images, so that the each combined video image comprises a first region (1 100) comprising only pixels from the video image and a second region (1200) wherein the blended video image appears in transparency behind the blended graphic image with a transparency that decreases according to a monotone law moving away from the first region (1100). A video processing unit adapted to implement the method is also disclosed.
