The integer value in the Layout field specifies the order of the six unfolded cube faces (the default value of 0 specifies the face order used in the Spherical Video V2 metadata standard: right, left, up, down, front, back). Most of the time, there’s no need to change these values. Layout and Padding: When “Projection mode” is set to Cubic, these fields become available, allowing you to adjust the six faces of the unfolded cube. Enter new values in the Width and Height fields to change the dimensions of the equirectangular frame. Enter values in the Left and Top fields to crop a specific number of pixels from the left edge and top edge of the image. However, if you need to alter the dimensions of 360° video from its 2:1 aspect ratio to a more conventional aspect ratio (16:9, for example), you can do so using these controls. Pixel bounds: When “Projection mode” is set to Equirectangular, this property becomes available, allowing you to modify the boundaries of the equirectangular frame. There are two options:Įquirectangular: The most common form of spatial mapping for 360° video, this option squeezes and distorts the spherical data like a flat map of the world represents the surface of the spherical earth.Ĭubic: A less common form of spatial mapping, this option represents the spherical data as an unfolded cube with six faces. Projection mode: Sets the type of spatial mapping used to store the 360° video. Enter new coordinates to change the initial orientation. Orientation: Displays the coordinates-Tilt (X), Pan (Y), and Roll (Z), in degrees-of the source video’s view origin (the initial angle that viewers will see in a VR headset before they turn their heads). If the source file had no metadata and you used Compressor to add it, this field displays “Apple CompressorKit.”

Source software: Identifies the software tool used to add metadata to the source file. The left-eye and right-eye images are encoded in the export file horizontally. Side by Side: Use this option for stereoscopic (3D) video for viewing in a VR headset. The left-eye and right-eye images are encoded in the export vertically. Over/Under: Use this option for stereoscopic (3D) video for viewing in a VR headset. Monoscopic: Use this option for standard (2D) video for viewing on a traditional display or in a VR headset. Stereoscopic mode: Ensure that this pop-up menu is set to an appropriate option:
(If it’s not selected, the source file has no spatial metadata and you must add metadata yourself.) Include 360° metadata: Make sure this checkbox is selected. The preview area displays the 360° source file’s video with its native properties. Note: If you modify properties in the 360° Metadata area, the image in the Compressor preview area stays the same.
