H.264\/AVC encoding.\u00a0 Optional audio tracks shall be submitted as separate files and also be included in this MP4 file.\u00a0 Submissions are free to use either 2.1, 5.1, or 7.1 audio, which means the submission consists of an MP4 video files and either 3, 6, or 8 individual audio files, one per channel.<\/p>\n<p>The remainder of this section is split into three parts, which follow the

software you are using the create the content for the contest has the ability to generate fisheye images directly, feel free to skip this part of the instructions.<\/p>\n<p>The high-level overview of rendering a fisheye method consists of rendering at 4 separate orthogonal viewpoints.\u00a0 These viewpoints then get merged into a cubemap, which in a second step gets reprojected into the fisheye representation.\u00a0 These two steps are already implemented in the Stitcher application, which is provided below.\u00a0 The following images shows these 4 orthogonal viewpoints as &#8220;left&#8221;, &#8220;right&#8221;, &#8220;top&#8221;, &#8220;bottom&#8221;.\u00a0 Please note that in the case of this submission (180\u00b0 fisheye), only half of the &#8220;top&#8221; and
