    Abstract: Techniques and tools are described for flexible range reduction of samples of video. For example, an encoder signals a first set of one or more syntax elements for range reduction of luma samples and signals a second set of one or more syntax elements for range reduction of chroma samples. The encoder selectively scales down the luma samples and chroma samples in a manner consistent with the first syntax element(s) and second syntax element(s), respectively. Or, an encoder signals range reduction syntax element(s) in an entry point header for an entry point segment, where the syntax element(s) apply to pictures in the entry point segment. If range reduction is used for the pictures, the encoder scales down samples of the pictures. Otherwise, the encoder skips the scaling down. A decoder performs corresponding parsing and scaling up operations.

    Abstract: Techniques and tools are described for scalable video encoding and decoding. In some embodiments, an encoding tool encodes base layer video and outputs encoded base layer video in a base layer bit stream. The encoding tool encodes inter-layer residual video (representing differences between input video and reconstructed base layer video) using motion compensation relative to previously reconstructed inter-layer residual video. For the inter-layer residual video, the encoding tool outputs motion information and motion-compensated prediction residuals in an enhancement layer bit stream. A decoding tool receives the base layer bit stream and enhancement layer bit stream, reconstructs base layer video, reconstructs inter-layer residual video, and combines the reconstructed base layer video and reconstructed inter-layer residual video. Using motion compensation for the inter-layer residual video facilitates the use of separate motion vectors and separate codecs for the base layer video and inter-layer residual video.

    Abstract: Techniques and tools for signaling for fading compensation in video processing applications are described. For example, a video encoder performs fading compensation on a reference image, signals that fading compensation is used, and signals fading parameters for the fading compensation. A video decoder receives the signaled information and performs fading compensation on the reference image according to the fading parameters.

    Abstract: A block transform-based digital media codec efficiently compresses digital media data using block patterns representing whether a block's coefficients are zero- valued, such that their explicit encoding is skipped. Because the block patterns can have widely varying probability distributions, the codec adaptively chooses a prediction mode for modifying the block patterns (e.g., based on spatial prediction, or inverting) to enhance their compression using entropy coding techniques. Further, with high spatial correlation of block patterns, the codec encodes a meta block pattern for a region indicating whether all block patterns of the region represent zero-valued coefficient blocks. In such cases, the codec can then also omit explicitly encoding the block patterns in those regions.

    Abstract: A video encoder/decoder utilizes a bistream syntax that provides an independently decodable, partial picture unit, which may be in the form of a unit containing one or more contiguous rows of macroblocks (called a slice). This slice layer provides a flexible combination of error-resilience and compression efficiency. The slice layer encodes an efficient addressing mechanism (e.g., a syntax element specifying a beginning macroblock row of the slice layer), as well as an efficient mechanism to optionally retransmit picture header information. The slice layer provides decoding and reconstruction independence by disabling all forms of prediction, overlap and loop-filtering across slice-boundaries. This permits a slice coded in intra-mode to be reconstructed error-free, irrespective of errors in other regions of the picture.
