JVET AHG Report: 360 video conversion software development (AHG6)

Abstract not available in document

JVET-I0006 JVET AHG Report: 360° video conversion software development (AHG6) [Y. He, K. Choi, V. Zakharchenko]

The document summarizes activities on 360-degree video content conversion software development between the 8th and the 9th JVET meetings.

The 360Lib-5.0 software package integrated all adoptions about projection format and metrics calculation, including:

  • For projection formats and frame packing:
  1. Update on Rotated Sphere Projection (RSP) (JVET-H0056);
  • For software:
  1. Fix for bug ticket #56;
  2. Bug fix for the interpolation weight derivation;

360Lib-5.0 related release:

360Lib-5.0rc1 with support of HM-16.16 and JEM-7.0 was released on Nov. 1st, 2017;

360Lib-5.0 with support of HM-16.16 and JEM-7.0 was released on Nov. 10th, 2017;

The 360Lib software is developed using a Subversion repository located at:

https://jvet.hhi.fraunhofer.de/svn/svn_360Lib/

The released version of 360Lib-5.0 can be found at:

https://jvet.hhi.fraunhofer.de/svn/svn_360Lib/tags/360Lib-45.0/

360Lib-5.0 testing results can be found at:
