    Abstract: A video processing method includes receiving a virtual reality (VR) content, encoding visual data obtained from the VR content to generate a part of a coded bitstream, and encapsulating the part of the coded bitstream into ISO Base Media File Format (ISOBMFF) file (s). In one exemplary implementation, the ISOBMFF file (s) may include a timed metadata track associated with a sphere visual track, where the timed metadata track is set to signal that the associated sphere visual track contains at least one spherical region contributed from at least one region visual track. In another exemplary implementation, the ISOBMFF file (s) may include a timed metadata track associated with a region visual track, where the timed metadata track is set to signal that the associated region visual track contributes to at least one spherical region carried in at least one sphere visual track. Further, an associated video processing apparatus is provided.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for color index coding of a block of video data using index prediction based on reconstructed neighboring pixels are disclosed. In one embodiment, color index encoding or decoding is applied to the current pixel indices by deriving index prediction from neighboring pixel indices of the reconstructed neighboring pixels. The reconstructed neighboring pixel values are first transformed into the neighboring pixel indices according to a quantization table to map between major color indices and major color values of the current block. The quantization table can be based on a major color table for the current block or can also be derived at a decoder side. The decoding process may reconstruct the current pixels by converting decoded current pixel indices to reconstructed current pixel values according to the quantization table or by directly copying the reconstructed neighboring pixel values indicated by decoded current pixel indices.

    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide an apparatus having an interface circuit, a processing circuit, and a display device. The interface circuit is configured to receive media presentation description information of media data. The media data includes video content on a two-dimensional (2D) plane that is projected from video content of a sphere surface. The video content on the 2D plane includes a plurality of segment streams having different coverages on the 2D plane. The media presentation description information uses projection based spatial relationship description (P-SRD) to describe the different coverages of the video content on the 2D plane according to the projection. The processing circuit is configured to determine one or more segment streams based on a region of interests for image generation and the P-SRD, select segments in the one or more segment streams, and cause the interface circuit to request and receive the selected segments.

    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure provide an apparatus that includes interface circuitry and processing circuitry. The interface circuitry is configured to receive signals carrying metadata for visual track composition from multiple visual tracks. The visual track composition includes alpha compositing, and can include spatial compositing and background compositing. The processing circuitry is configured to parse the metadata to extract configuration information for the visual track composition. Further, the processing circuitry receives a first sample from a first visual track and a second sample from a second visual track, and combines the first sample with the second sample to generate a composite sample based on the configuration information for the visual track composition.

    Abstract: A method or system for supporting dynamic construction of a user selected sub-region (e.g., viewport or region of interest) from other sub-regions of a reference media presentation encodes reference media presentation as component tracks. A streaming decoder receives a streaming media file of the reference media presentation and displays an arbitrarily selected sub-region of the reference media presentation. The streaming media file has a derived track that (i) references one or more of the plurality of component tracks and (ii) specifies a set of operations for constructing media samples based on the media samples of the referenced component tracks. The streaming decoder provides media samples for the selected sub-region by retrieving the referenced component tracks and performing the set of operations specified by the derived track.
