Abstract

A video processing method includes obtaining projection face(s) from an omnidirectional content of a sphere, and obtaining a re-sampled projection face by re-sampling at least a portion of a projection face of the projection face(s) through non-uniform mapping. The omnidirectional content of the sphere is mapped onto the projection face(s) via a 360-degree Virtual Reality (360 VR) projection. The projection face has a first source region and a second source region. The re-sampled projection face has a first re-sampled region and a second re-sampled region. The first re-sampled region is derived from re-sampling the first source region with a first sampling density. The second re-sampled region is derived from re-sampling the second source region with a second sampling density that is different from the first sampling density.
