Abstract: Concepts for encoding and decoding multi-view data for immersive video are disclosed. In an encoding method, metadata is generated comprising a field indicating if a patch data unit of the multi-view data comprises in-painted data for representing missing data. The generated metadata provides a means of distinguishing patch data units comprising original texture and depth data from patch data units comprising in-painted data (e.g. in-painted texture and depth data). The provision of such information within the metadata of immersive video may address problems associated with blending and pruned view reconstruction. Also provided are an encoder and a decoder for multi-view data for immersive video, and a corresponding bitstream, comprising metadata.
