    摘要: A decoder and method for using a new picture or frame type is provided. This type is referred to a an SP-picture. The temporal redundancies are not exploited in I-frames, compression efficiency of I-frame coding is significantly lower than the predictive coding. A method allows use of motion compensated predictive coding to exploit temporal redundancy in the sequence while still allowing perfect reconstruction of the frame using different reference frames. Methods using this new picture type provide for error resilience/recovery, bandwidth scalability, bitstream switching, processing scalability, random access and other functions. The SP-type picture provides for, among other functions, switching between different bitstreams, random access, fast forward and fast error-recovery by replacing I-pictures to increase the coding efficiency. As will be demonstrated, SP-pictures have the property that identical SP-frames may be obtained even when they are predicted using different reference frames.

    摘要: A motion compensated video coding method which can be applied especially in transfer of video streams using low transmission bit rate is presented. In the motion compensated coding method, the motion of picture elements between a piece of reference video information and a piece of current video information is estimated and then modeled using certain basis function and coefficients. The coefficients are quantized, and the quantizer is selected according to a certain selection criterion, for example, based on a target image quality or on a target transmission bit rate. Preferably the selection criterion is such that it automatically adjust the accuracy with which the motion of picture elements is represented to be related to the accuracy with which the prediction error information is represented. A decoding method, an encoder and a corresponding decoder are also described.

    摘要: This disclosure includes techniques for signaling characteristics of a representation of multimedia content at a representation layer, such as frame packing arrangement information for the representation. In one example, an apparatus for receiving video data includes a processing unit configured to receive information indicative of whether a bitstream includes a packed frame of video data, wherein the packed frame comprises two frames corresponding to different views of a scene for three-dimensional playback, and wherein the information is present in a representation layer external to a codec layer of the bitstream, automatically determine whether the apparatus is capable of decoding and rendering the bitstream based on an analysis of the received information and decoding and rendering capabilities of the device, and retrieve the bitstream when the processing unit determines that the device is capable of decoding and rendering the bitstream.

    摘要: The techniques of this disclosure apply to loop filtering across slice or tile boundaries in a video coding process. In one example, a method for performing loop filtering in a video coding process includes determining that pixels corresponding to filter coefficients of a filter mask for a loop filter are across a slice or tile boundary, removing filter coefficients corresponding to the pixels across the slice or tile boundary from the filter mask, renormalizing the filter mask without the removed filter coefficients, performing loop filtering using the renormalized filter mask.
