Abstract: An encoder determines, based on a width and a height of a block, whether or not to disable a prediction mode in which the block is split along a partitioning line defined by a distance and an angle and then prediction is performed; and encodes the block with the prediction mode disabled or not disabled according to a result of the determination on whether or not to disable the prediction mode. Here, the distance is the shortest distance between the center of the block and the partitioning line, and the angle is an angle representing a direction from the center of the block toward the partitioning line in the shortest distance. The encoder determines to disable the prediction mode when (i) a width-to-height ratio is at least 8 or (ii) a height-to-width ratio is at least 8.

Abstract: An encoder includes circuitry and memory connected to the circuitry. In operation, the circuitry corrects a base motion vector using a correction value in a fixed direction; and encodes a current partition by using the corrected base motion vector corrected. The correction value is specified by an index indicating one of correction values included in a table. The table is selected from among a plurality of tables, wherein the correction values in one of the plurality of tables have different increments from the correction values in another one of the plurality of tables.

Abstract: An encoder includes memory and circuitry. The circuitry, using the memory, (i) selects a mode from among a plurality of modes each for deriving a motion vector, and derives a motion vector for a current block via the selected mode, and (ii) performs inter prediction encoding on the current block, using the derived motion vector, via one of a skip mode and a non-skip mode different from the skip mode. The plurality of modes include a plurality of first modes each for predicting the motion vector for the current block based on an encoded block neighboring the current block without encoding information indicating a motion vector into a stream. When a second mode included in the plurality of first modes is selected, the current block is encoded via the non-skip mode regardless of presence or absence of a residual coefficient.

Abstract: An encoding method includes: changing values of luma pixels in a first block and a second block to filter a first boundary between the first block and the second block, using clipping such that change amounts of the respective values are within respective luma clip widths, the luma pixels in the first block and the second block being arranged along a first line across the first boundary; and changing values of chroma pixels in a third block and a fourth block to filter a second boundary between the third block and the fourth block, using clipping such that change amounts of the respective values are within respective chroma clip widths, the chroma pixels in the third block and the fourth block being arranged along a second line across the second boundary. The luma clip widths applied to the luma pixels are selected to be asymmetrical relative to the first boundary.

Abstract: A transmitting method for transmitting contents using a broadcast wave and a communication path comprises: including content information in application control information when transmitting the contents using both the broadcast wave and the communication path, the content information being information for synchronizing a content transmitted by using the broadcast wave with a content transmitted by using the communication path at a reception side that receives the contents and being related to the content transmitted by using the communication path; and transmitting the application control information by using at least the broadcast wave in the broadcast wave and the communication path. As a result, a contents transmitting method is provided for enabling a quick access to contents through communication when the contents are reproduced by a combination of broadcast and communication on the receiving side.

Abstract: An encoder determines, based on a width and a height of a block, whether or not to disable a prediction mode in which the block is split along a partitioning line defined by a distance and an angle and then prediction is performed; and encodes the block with the prediction mode disabled or not disabled according to a result of the determination on whether or not to disable the prediction mode. Here, the distance is the shortest distance between the center of the block and the partitioning line, and the angle is an angle representing a direction from the center of the block toward the partitioning line in the shortest distance. The encoder determines to disable the prediction mode when (i) a width-to-height ratio is at least 8 or (ii) a height-to-width ratio is at least 8.
