A method of coding implemented by a decoding device. The method includes receiving a bitstream from an encoding device, the bitstream containing a minimum block width and a minimum block height, partitioning a current block into sub-blocks until one of the sub-blocks reaches the minimum block width or the minimum block height, determining pixel values for the one of the sub-blocks that has reached the minimum block width or the minimum block height, and displaying, on a display of an electronic device, an image generated using the pixel values that were determined.
