A video encoding method includes: setting a 360-degree Virtual Reality (360 VR) projection layout of projection faces, wherein the projection faces have a plurality of triangular projection faces located at a plurality of positions in the 360 VR projection layout, respectively; encoding a frame having a 360-degree image content represented by the projection faces arranged in the 360 VR projection layout to generate a bitstream; and for each position included in at least a portion of the positions, signaling at least one syntax element via the bitstream, wherein the at least one syntax element is set to indicate at least one of an index of a triangular projection view filled into a corresponding triangular projection face located at the position and a rotation angle of content rotation applied to the triangular projection view filled into the corresponding triangular projection face located at the position.
