Abstract
A video processing method includes: receiving an omnidirectional image/video content corresponding to a viewing sphere, generating a sequence of projection-based frames according to the omnidirectional image/video content and an octahedron projection layout, and encoding, by a video encoder, the sequence of projection-based frames to generate a bitstream. Each projection-based frame has a 360-degree image/video content represented by triangular projection faces packed in the octahedron projection layout. The omnidirectional image/video content of the viewing sphere is mapped onto the triangular projection faces via an octahedron projection of the viewing sphere. An equator of the viewing sphere is not mapped along any side of each of the triangular projection faces.
