    Abstract: A method for video decoding is disclosed. A directional intra prediction mode is decoded for a block of a picture, the directional intra prediction mode having a direction. Based on the directional intra prediction mode, a first predictor and a second predictor for a sample in the current block are accessed, the first and second predictors being on a line at least approximating the direction. A sample value of the sample is predicted by interpolation using the first and second predictors, responsive to a difference between the second and first predictors, wherein the difference is scaled by at least a ratio that is based on a location of the sample in the block, and wherein a denominator of the ratio is a power of two regardless of the location of the sample. The sample of the block is reconstructed based on the predicted sample value.

    Abstract: Clipping may be applied during various operations at an encoder or decoder. The lower and upper bounds for clipping can be differentially encoded with respect to predictors. Fixed predictors can be used, for example, 0 and 2bitdepth for the lower and upper bounds, respectively. Adaptive predictors can also be used. Adaptive predictors can be derived from clipping bounds in previously encoded or decoded pictures, or explicitly signaled in a bitstream. Whether to encode the clipping bounds can be determined based on the number of pixels that have values close to the clipping bounds. Additionally, taking advantage of the clipping operation, the prediction residuals can be smoothed, while the distortion for the block may not necessarily increase.

    Abstract: Video signal coding and decoding functions can generate lists of potential candidates to use in coding and decoding, for example, predictors. Video signal coding component candidate undergo operations before potential inclusion in candidate lists. The candidates are checked after being modified by the operations to see if other equal candidates are already in the candidate list. If equal candidates are not in the list, the modified candidates are added to the candidate list. If equal candidates are already in the list, the modified candidates are not added to the list. Operations that can be performed comprise rounding and clipping.

    Abstract: A video encoder or decoder processes portions of video using virtual temporal affine motion candidates. Under the general aspects, virtual temporal affine candidates are created using only the classical temporal motion buffer information, avoiding the storage of additional affine parameters in a temporal motion buffer. A motion field for encoding or decoding a video block is generated based on the virtual temporal affine candidates. In one embodiment, collocated motion candidates are rescaled by adjusting the picture order count of the determined motion field. In another embodiment, resolution adaptation is performed to enable a current motion buffer to correspond to a reference motion buffer.

    Abstract: A method for decoding a current block of a picture is disclosed. First, at least one illumination compensation parameter for the current block is decoded responsive to a comparison of a parameter of the current block with a value. Then, an accessed motion compensation reference block is compensated in illumination responsive to the at least one illumination compensation parameter. Finally, the current block is reconstructed from the illumination and motion compensated reference block.
