Abstract

An apparatus comprising an interface and a processor. The interface may be configured to receive (i) a spherical video stream and (ii) data from a playback device to determine a region of interest. The processor may be configured to (a) generate an encoded spherical video stream from the spherical video stream, (b) select a target area for one or more upcoming frames of the encoded spherical video stream corresponding to the region of interest, (c) encode the target area using first parameters, (d) encode a remaining area of the encoded spherical video stream outside of the target area using second parameters and (e) present the one or more upcoming frames to the playback device. Encoding using the first parameters may have a different bitrate than using the second parameters.
