Abstract

A method of transitioning between a first virtual reality view and a second virtual reality view within media content of a virtual reality environment is described. The method comprises: sending the first virtual reality view containing the media content to a virtual reality device over a first network path; determining a second, different, virtual reality view containing media content; sending at least a section of the second virtual reality view to the virtual reality device over a second network path, the latency of the second network path being less than the latency of the first network path.
