摘要:
In a method performed by an encoder according to a first aspect a one-bit flag is signaled, wherein the one-bit flag is associated with a reference picture in a buffer description for the current picture. The one-bit flag is set to explicitly indicate to a decoder if the reference picture should be included in a list of reference pictures or not included in the list of reference pictures. The list of reference pictures indicates which pictures that can be used for decoding the current picture.

A communication device and method for controlling a bit rate when encoding video data that includes a plurality of frames. The method includes partitioning a received current frame into groups of blocks; estimating an energy for a current group of blocks, where the energy of the current group of blocks depends from a same group of blocks in a previous frame; determining a target number of bits for the current group of blocks; calculating a quantization parameter for the current group of blocks of the current frame based on the estimated energy of the current group of blocks and the determined target number of bits for the current group of blocks; and encoding the current group of blocks based on the calculated quantization parameter.

An encoded representation (60) of a picture (10) of a video stream (1) is decoded by retrieving buffer description information defining at least one reference picture (40, 42). The buffer description information is used to determine a picture identifier of a reference picture (40, 42), which is compared to picture identifiers of reference pictures (40, 42) stored in a decoded picture buffer (230, 350). If the reference picture (40, 42) is determined to be missing based on the comparison of picture identifiers the layer identifier of the reference picture (40, 42) obtained based on the buffer description information is compared to a layer identifier of the current picture (10) in order to determine whether the missing reference picture (40, 42) has been intentionally removed or is unintentionally lost.

An encoded representation (60) of a picture (10) of a video stream (1) is decoded by retrieving buffer description information identifying a buffer description defining multiple reference pictures (40, 42) of the video stream (1) from the encoded representation (60). A picture identifier of a reference picture (42) is determined based on picture identifier information retrieved from the buffer description for the reference picture (42) and a reference picture preceding the reference picture according to a list order in the buffer description. The determined picture identifier is used to update a decoded picture buffer (230, 350) that stores reference pictures (40, 42) to be used as decoding reference for the picture (10) and/or any subsequent picture (50) of the video stream (1).
摘要:
An adaptive filter having multiple filter parameters is determined by defining at least one filter parameter as having a first level of adaptivity and defining at least one other filter parameter as having a second, different level of adaptivity. The parameter values for the at least one filter parameter having the first level of adaptivity are determined among a first set of allowable filter parameter values. The parameter values for the at least one filter parameter having the second level of adaptivity are correspondingly determined among a second, different set of allowable filter parameter values. The different levels of adaptivity in the filter parameters of the adaptive filter are achieved as the second set comprises more allowable filter parameter values than the first set. The adaptive filter is advantageously used in filtering in intra or inter predication during video encoding and decoding.
摘要:
The embodiments of the present invention relate to reference picture management in connection with video encoding and decoding, and in particular to reference picture signalling. A method performed by an encoder for encoding a representation of a video stream of multiple pictures is provided. Each picture belongs to a layer. In the method, it is decided if any picture that belongs to a layer equal to or lower to a layer of a current picture is using the current picture as a reference picture in a decoding process, and information is sent to a decoder indicating if the current picture is not used as a reference picture by any picture belonging to the same or lower layer.
