Abstract:
The present disclosure provides methods and devices of intra predicting a block of a picture. The method comprises for a sample of the block: obtaining a predicted sample value from one or more reference sample values by performing intra-prediction using a DC intra-prediction mode; multiplying the predicted sample value by a sample weighting factor to produce a weighted predicted sample value; adding an additional value to the weighted predicted sample value to produce a non-normalized predicted sample value; and normalizing the non-normalized predicted sample value by an arithmetic right shift; wherein the sample weighting factor is ((2

Abstract:
A current video coding block of a frame of a video signal is intra predicted. The current video coding block comprises a plurality of pixels and each pixel is associated with a pixel value. On the basis of a plurality of primary reference pixel values a plurality of secondary reference pixel values are generated. The plurality of primary reference pixel values are associated with a plurality of primary reference pixels located in neighboring video coding blocks of the current video coding block. Each of the secondary reference pixel values is generated on the basis of two or more of the primary reference pixel values. The pixel values of the pixels of the current video coding block are intra predicted on the basis of the plurality of primary reference pixel values and the plurality of secondary reference pixel values.
