Abstract

The invention relates to a method for navigation in a panoramic video sequence displayed on a user terminal. The video sequence is divided into a plurality of non-overlapping video patches each corresponding to a zone of the video sequence. The video patches required to form a zone of the panoramic video sequence to be displayed on a screen of the user terminal, called the visibility zone, are determined according to navigation commands. According to the invention, the video patches are provided to the user terminal, for one part, via a first transmission network and, for another part, via a second transmission network distinct from said first transmission network.
