Abstract
Methods and apparatus of processing 360-degree virtual reality images are disclosed. According to one method, the method receives coded data for an extended 2D (two-dimensional) frame including an encoded 2D frame with one or more encoded guard bands, wherein the encoded 2D frame is projected from a 3D (three-dimensional) sphere using a target projection, wherein said one or more encoded guard bands are based on a blending of one or more guard bands with an overlapped region when the overlapped region exists. The method then decodes the coded data into a decoded extended 2D frame including a decoded 2D frame with one or more decoded guard bands, and derives a reconstructed 2D frame from the decoded extended 2D frame.
