The present disclosure relates to moving picture processing, and in particular to cases where non-rectangular partitioning modes are used for the inter-prediction in a combination with weighted prediction (WP) for coding fades. Non-rectangular modes refer to those inter-prediction modes, in which case a current block is partitioned/sliced in a non-rectangular way (slices). Such modes may be triangular (TMP) or geometric (GEO) prediction. The aim of the invention is to harmonize non-rectangular partitioning modes with WP by way of disabling TMP/GEO when WP is applied. This may be accomplished by checking whether all reference pictures for a current slice are disabled, and if this is the case to disable the slice-level WP for non-rectangular prediction units. Whether the reference pictures are disabled may be determined based on conditions applied on set values, for example, of luma/chroma flags, which refer to the reference pictures.
