Cubmap VR Video

VR videos using Cubemap rendering

This example demonstrates Cubemap 3 x 2 sides video texture support.

Cubemap video is tiled videos of the 6 faces of the camera. This is supposed to help with better rendering quality and reduced bandwidth.

To enable cubemap support enable the projection config to 360_CUBE

Facebook have been active with the Cubemap video rendering support and have produced an encoder filter for ffmpeg to convert to Cubemap from Equirectangular.
