    Abstract: Examples of the disclosure relate to apparatus, methods and computer programs. The apparatus including circuitry configured for obtaining a spatial audio signal where the spatial audio signal includes at least one participant audio object and at least one private audio object wherein the private audio object is associated with a participant which generated the participant audio object. The apparatus also includes circuitry configured for causing the participant audio object to be rendered in a first spatial location and causing the private audio object to be rendered in a second spatial location so that the rendering of the private audio object is less prominent than the rendering of the participant audio object.

    Abstract: A method, apparatus and computer program product enable multiple timeline support in playback of omnidirectional media content with overlay. The method, apparatus and computer program product receive a visual overlay configured to be rendered as a multi-layer visual content with an omnidirectional media content file (30). The omnidirectional media content file is associated with a first presentation timeline. The visual overlay is associated with a second presentation timeline. The method, apparatus and computer program product construct an overlay behavior definition file associated with the visual overlay (32). The overlay behavior definition file indicates a behavior of the second presentation timeline with respect to the first presentation in an instance that a pre-defined user interaction switch occurs during a playback of the omnidirectional media content file.

    Abstract: A network apparatus distributes a first plurality of tasks for processing first media content among at least a first slicing window and a second slicing window based on a connection map included in a workflow description from a network based media processing (NBMP) source. The first slicing window includes at least one first task from among the first plurality of tasks and the second slicing window includes at least one second task from among the first plurality of tasks. The network apparatus provisions the first media content to at least a first of the one or more media sinks by deploying the at least one first task to one or more first media processing entities, and deploying the at least one second task to one or more of the first media processing entities in response to receiving an indication that the at least one first task has been deployed successfully.
