A method for decoding or encoding includes obtaining views parameters for a set of views comprising at least one reference view and a current view of a multi-views video content wherein each view comprises a texture layer and a depth layer. For at least one couple of a reference view and the current view of the set of views, an intermediate prediction image applying a forward projection method to pixels of the reference view is generated to project these pixels from a camera coordinates system of the reference view to a camera coordinates system of the current view, the prediction image comprising information allowing reconstructing image data. At least one final prediction image obtained from at least one intermediate prediction image is stored in a buffer of reconstructed images of the current view. A current image of the current view from the images stored in said buffer is reconstructed, said buffer comprising said at least one final prediction image.
