Abstract

A multi-view image stream encoded with primary and secondary image is accessed. Each primary image stream comprises groups of pictures (GOPs). Each secondary image stream comprises I-frames generated from a corresponding primary image stream. Viewpoint data collected in real time is received from a recipient decoding device to indicate that the viewer's viewpoint has changed from a specific time point. A camera is selected based on the viewer's changed viewpoint. It is determined whether the specific time point corresponds to a non-I-frame in a GOP of a primary image stream of the selected camera. If so, an I-frame from a secondary image stream corresponding to the primary image stream is transmitted to the recipient decoding device.
