Abstract:
An apparatus for coding video information according to certain aspects includes a memory unit and a processor in communication with the memory unit. The memory unit stores difference video information associated with a difference video layer of pixel information derived from a difference between an enhancement layer and a corresponding base layer of the video information. The processor determines pixel accuracy of motion predictor information, determines a motion vector based on the pixel accuracy of the motion predictor information, and determines a value of a video unit based at least in part on the motion vector.
Abstract:
In general, the disclosure describes techniques related to block vector coding for Intra Block Copy and Inter modes. In one example, the disclosure is directed to a video coding device comprising a memory configured to store video data and one or more processors. The video coding device is configured to determine a reference picture used for coding the current video block and determine a picture order count (POC) value for the reference picture. In response to the POC value for the reference picture being equal to a POC value for a current picture that includes the current video block, the video coding device sets a value of a syntax element to indicate that a reference picture list includes the current picture. Otherwise, the video coding device sets the value of the syntax element to indicate that the reference picture list does not include the current picture.
Abstract:
In one example, a device for coding video data includes a video coder configured to code, for a tile of an enhancement layer picture, data indicating a number of tiles in a base layer picture that need to be coded before the tile of the enhancement layer picture can be coded, code tiles of the base layer picture corresponding to the number of tiles, and, after coding the tiles of the base layer picture, code the tile of the enhancement layer picture substantially in parallel with at least one other tile in the base layer picture.
Abstract:
An apparatus for coding video information according to certain aspects includes a memory unit and a processor in communication with the memory unit. The memory unit stores difference video information associated with a difference video layer of pixel information derived from a difference between an enhancement layer and a corresponding base layer of the video information. The processor determines a DC prediction value for a video unit associated with the difference video layer while refraining from using pixel information from a neighboring area of the video unit, wherein the DC prediction value is equal to zero or is offset by an offset value. The DC prediction value is a prediction value used in intra prediction based at least on an average of neighboring video units of the video unit. The processor further determines a value of the video unit based at least in part on the DC prediction value.

The memory unit stores difference video information associated with a difference video layer of pixel information derived from a difference between an enhancement layer and a corresponding base layer of the video information.

The processor is further configured to refrain from performing a transform and residual coding of the determined value of the video unit.
Abstract:
A video decoder is configured to decode a bitstream that comprises an encoded representation of video data. As part of decoding the bitstream, the video decoder obtains, from the bitstream, one or more syntax elements indicating one or more partitioning schemes. For each respective partitioning scheme of the one or more partitioning schemes, the respective partitioning scheme specifies a respective set of disjoint partitions whose union forms an output layer set. Each respective partition of the respective set of disjoint partitions contains one or more of the layers. The video decoder is further configured to decode each of the partitions of a particular partitioning scheme using different processing cores in a plurality of hardware cores, the particular partitioning scheme being one of the one or more partitioning schemes.
Abstract:
A device configured to code video data includes: a memory configured to store video data, and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to: code information indicating whether a block from a current picture will flicker. A determination of whether the block from the current picture will flicker is based on the block in the current picture in a display order and a collocated block from a next picture in the display order.
Abstract:
A device may determine, based on a value, whether all cross-layer random access skipped (CL-RAS) pictures of an intra random access point (IRAP) access unit are present in a video data bitstream. In addition, the device may reconstruct pictures of the video data based at least in part on syntax elements decoded from the video data bitstream.

Abstract:
In general, techniques are described for performing multiple passes of sample adaptive offset (SAO) filtering when coding video data. A video decoding device comprising one or more processors may perform the techniques. The processors may determine a first SAO pixel classification for a block of video data and determine a first offset value based on the first SAO pixel classification and one or more pixel values of the block. The one or more processors may also determine a second SAO pixel classification for the block and determine a second offset value based on the second SAO pixel classification and the one or more pixel values of block of video data. The processors may then apply the first offset value and the second offset value to the block of video data to generate a block of SAO filtered video data.
