Abstract

A method for transitioning from a first set of video tracks, VT, to a second set of video tracks, VT, when rendering a multi-track video, wherein each video track has a corresponding rendering priority. The method comprises receiving an instruction to transition from a first set of first video tracks VTto a second set of second video tracks VT, obtaining the video tracks VTand, if the video tracks VTare different to the video tracks VT, applying a lowering function to the rendering priority of one or more of the video tracks in the first set of video tracks VTand/or an increase function to the rendering priority of one or more video tracks in the second set of video tracks VT. The lowering function and the increase function decrease and increase the rendering priority over time respectively. The rendering priority is used in the determination of the weighting of a video track and/or elements of a video track used to render a multi-track video.
