Apple's Movie Profiles for Spatial and Immersive Media (v0.9 Beta, 9 June 2025) distinguishes 3D/Spatial Video (rectilinear MV-HEVC) from APMP delivery and production; APMP for production permits other codecs and frame-packed video while delivery is MV-HEVC, with vexu boxes signalling projection, packing and disparity adjustment.

Curator qualifications: Exact per-profile allowed/forbidden matrix (e.g. dadj not supported in APMP delivery) only partly re-read; beta document may change. Triage ordering (F3) is producer synthesis.

Limitations: Beta specification.
