Claim 16:
17. A method, comprising:
receiving 2D video images that comprise patch image data for compressed visual volumetric content, wherein at least some of the patch images have been scaled by one or more scaling factors that are not uniform for all of the patch images in a given 2D video image frame;
receiving auxiliary information for patches of the compressed visual volumetric content packed into the 2D video images, wherein the auxiliary information indicates the one or more scaling factors;
determining based on the auxiliary information, portions of the 2D video images that correspond to respective patches of the compressed visual volumetric content; and
reconstructing a 3D representation of the visual volumetric content based on patches extracted from the 2D video images.
