Abstract: A decoder includes circuitry and memory. In both of a first type of residual decoding where an inverse orthogonal transform is applied and a second type of residual decoding where the inverse orthogonal transform is skipped, wherein when a restriction on a number of CABAC processes allows CABAC decoding of a set of coefficient information flags, the circuitry: decodes the coefficient information flags by CABAC; and otherwise, the circuitry: skips the CABAC decoding of the coefficient information flags; and the circuitry decodes a remainder value of the coefficient with Golomb-Rice decoding when the coefficient information flags are decoded; and otherwise the circuitry decodes a value of the coefficient with the Golomb-Rice decoding, wherein in the second type of residual decoding, the circuitry decodes absolute value flags each relating to an absolute value of the coefficient after decoding the coefficient information flags and before decoding the remainder value of the coefficient.

Abstract: An encoder includes circuitry which generates a first coefficient value by applying a CCALF process to a first reconstructed image sample of a luma component; generates a second coefficient value by applying an ALF process to a second reconstructed image sample of a chroma component; generates a third coefficient value by adding the first coefficient value to the second coefficient value; and encodes a third reconstructed image sample of the chroma component using the third coefficient value. The circuitry writes a first parameter into a sequence parameter set; writes a second parameter into a parameter set of a picture in response to a value of the first parameter being 1; writes a third parameter into a slice header in response to the value of the first parameter being 1; and writes a fourth parameter into a coding tree unit in response to a value of the third parameter being 1.

Abstract: An encoder includes circuitry and memory coupled to the circuitry. The circuitry determines whether to split a current luma virtual pipeline decoding unit (VPDU) into smaller blocks. When it is determined not to split the current luma VPDU into smaller blocks, the circuitry predicts a block of chroma samples without using luma samples. When it is determined to split the luma VPDU into smaller blocks, the circuitry predicts the block of chroma samples using luma samples. The circuitry encodes the block using the predicted chroma samples.

Abstract: An encoder includes circuitry and memory coupled to the circuitry. The circuitry, in operation, generates a first coefficient value by applying a CCALF (cross component adaptive loop filtering) process to a first reconstructed image sample of a luma component, and generates a second coefficient value by applying an ALF (adaptive loop filtering) process to a second reconstructed image sample of a chroma component. The circuitry modifies the first coefficient value by performing an arithmetic right shift by 7 bits on the first coefficient value. The circuitry generates a third coefficient value by adding the modified first coefficient value to the second coefficient value, and encodes a third reconstructed image sample of the chroma component using the third coefficient value.
