Abstract:
A video processing device is configured to obtain, from a bitstream, one or more syntax elements indicating one or more partitioning schemes for an output layer set. For each respective partitioning scheme of the one or more partitioning schemes, the respective partitioning scheme specifies a division of the output layer set into one or more partitions. Each layer in the output layer set belongs to exactly one partition in the respective partitioning scheme. Additionally, the video processing device obtains, from a Supplemental Enhancement Information (SEI) message or video usability information (VUI) in a video parameter set (VPS), hypothetical reference decoder (HRD) parameters for each of the one or more partitioning schemes. For each respective partition of the respective partitioning scheme, the video processing device tests, based on the HRD parameters for the respective partitioning scheme, the respective partition for conformance to a video coding standard.
Abstract:
Methods for defining decoder capability for decoding multi-layer bitstreams containing video information, in which the decoder is implemented based on multiple single-layer decoder cores, are disclosed. In one aspect, the method may include identifying at least one allocation of layers of the bitstream into at least one set of layers. The method may further include detecting whether each set of layers is capable of being exclusively assigned to one of the decoder cores for the decoding of the bitstream. The method may also include determining whether the decoder is capable of decoding the bitstream based at least in part on detecting whether each set of layers is capable of being exclusively assigned to one of the decoder cores.
Abstract:
Systems and methods for encoding and decoding scalable video information are disclosed. The system may have a memory unit configured to store syntax elements for a multi-layer picture. The system may further comprise one or more processors operationally coupled to the memory unit. The processors may be configured to determine at least one phase offset value between a reference layer sample position in the multi-layer picture and a corresponding enhancement layer sample position. The processors may be further configured to generate a syntax element indicating the phase offset value the phase offset value representing a phase offset of a luma sample position and a chroma sample position of the reference layer position.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of coding video data includes determining a location of a reference sample associated with a reference picture of video data based on one or more scaled offset values, where the reference picture is included in a first layer of a multi-layer bitstream and the one or more scaled offset values indicate a difference in scale between the first layer and a second, different layer. The method also includes determining a location of a collocated reference block of video data in the first layer based on the location of the reference sample, and coding a current block of video data in the second layer relative to the collocated reference block.
Abstract:
In an example, a method of coding video data includes coding data of a video parameter set (VPS) of a multi-layer bitstream, including at least one of data that indicates whether any layers of the multi-layer bitstream have an inter-layer prediction restriction or data that indicates whether tile boundaries are aligned between at least two of the layers of the multi-layer bitstream, and coding the multi-layer bitstream in accordance with the data of the VPS.
Abstract:
In one example, a device for coding video data includes a video coder configured to code data indicating whether tile boundaries of different layers of video data are aligned and whether inter-layer prediction is allowed along or across tile boundaries of enhancement layer blocks, code an enhancement layer block in an enhancement layer tile of the video data without using inter-layer prediction from a collocated base layer block for which inter-layer filtering or reference layer filtering across tile boundaries in a reference layer picture in an access unit including both the enhancement layer tile and the base layer block is enabled, and code the collocated base layer block.
Abstract:
In one example, a device for coding video data includes a video coder configured to code data representative of whether a tile of an enhancement layer picture can be predicted using inter-layer prediction, and predict data of the tile using inter-layer prediction only when the data indicates that the tile can be predicted using inter-layer prediction.
Abstract:
This disclosure presents techniques for sample adaptive offset (SAO) filtering that focus on filtering the changed region of a picture or layer (e.g., the high frequency component of video blocks of a picture or layer). In general, the techniques of this disclosure may be referred to as High-Frequency-Pass SAO (HSAO) filtering. In one example, a method for coding video data comprises obtaining a decoded block of video data, separating the decoded block of video data into a low-frequency component and a high-frequency component, applying an SAO filter to the high-frequency component to generate a SAO filtered high-frequency component, and combining the SAO filtered high-frequency component and the low-frequency component to generate a filtered decoded block of video data.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for video image coding are provided. Sets of filters may be selected and applied to video information at least partially based on the type of inter layer prediction implemented in coding the video information. Different filters, or filter sets, may be used for inter layer intra prediction, difference domain intra prediction, and/or difference domain inter prediction. Filter selection information may be embedded in the video bit stream.
