Problems solved by technology

[0003] In addition, in the current encoding process of the key frame (I frame) of the panoramic video, such as adopting HEVC (HighEfficiency Video Coding, which is a new video compression standard, which can replace the H.264 / AVC encoding standard) or AVS (Audio Video Coding) Coding Standard, audio and video coding standard) encodes I frames, only using the spatial correlation within the frame, resulting in low compression efficiency of I frames
[0004] As a result, the current panoramic video is large in size, consumes a lot of network traffic during transmission, and has high bandwidth costs, which limits the promotion and application of panoramic video

Abstract

This invention discloses an encoding method and configuration for panorama video key frame. The method includes: obtaining spherical panorama video key frame; converting the spherical panorama video key frame to planar panorama view key frame according to the preset mapping method; generating a new video sequence from the above planar panorama view key frames as their scanning order; encoding one planar view as I-frame method, and the rest as P-frame; integrating all planar views into a whole planar panorama video as separate previous positions ; reversely converting the panorama video to spherical panorama video key frame. Compared with current I-frame encoding method, this invention provides an encoding method which improves compress efficiency of panorama video key frame, saves network bandwidth and facilitates promotion and application of panorama video.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of virtual reality (Virtual Reality, VR) video technology, in particular to a method and device for encoding key frames of a panoramic video. Background technique [0002] At present, VR (virtual reality) videos on the market are mainly panoramic videos. The video coverage angle of the panoramic video is 360 degrees horizontally and 180 degrees vertically. Compared with the normal video, the file data volume of the panoramic video is greatly increased. [0003] In addition, in the current encoding process of the key frame (I frame) of the panoramic video, such as adopting HEVC (HighEfficiency Video Coding, which is a new video compression standard, which can replace the H.264 / AVC encoding standard) or AVS (Audio Video Coding) Coding Standard (audio and video coding standard) encodes I frames, and only utilizes the spatial correlation within the frame, resulting in low compression efficiency of I frames.
