User device pan and scan

1. A method comprising:

receiving, by a user device, an image configured for output by the user device;

receiving output information associated with the image, wherein the output information comprises a first plurality of output parameters associated with a first orientation of the user device, and a second plurality of output parameters associated with a second orientation of the user device;

determining the first orientation of the user device; and

causing, based on determining the first orientation, and based on the first plurality of output parameters associated with the first orientation, at least a portion of the image to be output by the user device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the image is associated with a portion of a video.

3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the output information comprises a display map indicating the first plurality of output parameters and the second plurality of output parameters.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of output parameters and the second plurality of output parameters each comprise at least one of: an image boundary, an aspect ratio, one or more image boundaries, or a transition.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the determining the first orientation of the user device comprises receiving orientation data from a sensor integrated with the user device.

6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of output parameters comprises a first image boundary associated with a portrait orientation of the user device, and the second plurality of output parameters comprises a second image boundary associated with a landscape orientation of the user device.

7. The method of claim 6 , wherein the first image boundary or the second image boundary represents a portion of the image that is less than the whole image.

8. The method of claim 3 , wherein the receiving the output information comprises receiving the output information in response to a request for information relating to the video.

9. A method comprising:

receiving, by a user device, an image and output information, wherein the output information comprises a first plurality of output parameters associated with a first orientation of the user device, and a second plurality of output parameters associated with a second orientation of the user device;

determining the first orientation of the user device; and

causing, based on determining the first orientation, and based on the first plurality of output parameters associated with the first orientation, at least a portion of the image to be output by the user device.

10. The method of claim 9 , wherein the image is associated with a portion of a video.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein the receiving the output information is in response to a request for information relating to the video.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first plurality of output parameters and the second plurality of output parameters each comprise at least one of: an image boundary, an aspect ratio, one or more image boundaries, or a transition.

13. The method of claim 9 , wherein the determining the first orientation of the user device comprises receiving orientation data from a sensor integrated with the user device.

14. The method of claim 9 , wherein the first plurality of output parameters comprises a first image boundary associated with a portrait orientation of the user device, and the second plurality of output parameters comprises a second image boundary associated with a landscape orientation of the user device.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the first image boundary or the second image boundary represents a portion of the image that is less than the whole image.

16. The method of claim 9 , wherein the output information comprises a display map indicating the first plurality of output parameters and the second plurality of output parameters.

17. A method comprising:

receiving video having a time stamp associated with at least a portion of the video;

receiving boundary information associated with the time stamp and the portion of the video;

associating the boundary information to a first plurality of device parameters associated with a first orientation of the user device, and a second plurality of device parameters associated with a second orientation of the user device; and

sending, to the user device, at least the portion of the video and the association of the boundary information to the first plurality of device parameters and the second plurality of device parameters, wherein the sending facilitates playback, based on the first plurality of device parameters or the second plurality of device parameters, of the portion of the video associated with the timestamp.

18. The method of claim 17 , wherein the first plurality of device parameters and the second plurality of device parameters each comprise a display map indicating the association.

19. The method of claim 18 , wherein the first plurality of device parameters and the second plurality of device parameters each comprise one or more of an image boundary, an aspect ratio, one or more image boundaries, or a transition.

20. The method of claim 18 , wherein the first plurality of device parameters comprises a first image boundary associated with a portrait orientation of the user device, and the second plurality of device parameters comprises a second image boundary associated with a landscape orientation of the user device.

21. The method of claim 1 , wherein the output information is embedded in the image or in a content stream associated with the image.

22. The method of claim 9 , wherein the output information is embedded in the image or in a content stream associated with the image.

23. The method of claim 17 , further comprising:

embedding the first plurality of device parameters and the second plurality of device parameters in the video or in a content stream associated with the video.
