Claim 15:
16. A non-transitory computer-readable medium comprising instructions executable by at least one processor to perform a method for rendering a 360-degree media content, the method comprising:
receiving the 360-degree media content and metadata associated with the 360-degree media content, wherein the metadata include a classification of a first spatial region from the 360-degree content;
storing a user preference;
detecting a user movement indicative of a user viewing direction;
determining that the user movement is associated with a rendering of the first spatial region;
determining whether the classification associated with the first spatial region complies with the user preference; and
if the classification violates the user preference, determining a path for gradually shifting the content rendering from a currently rendered spatial region to a spatial region that complies with the user preference; and
rendering the content according to the determined path.
