  • Publication number: 20240129538
    Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatus for video processing are described. The video processing may include video encoding, video decoding, or video transcoding. One example method of video processing includes performing a conversion between a video comprising one or more pictures comprising one or more slices and a bitstream of the video. The bitstream conforms to a predefined order between a position of a first network abstraction layer (NAL) unit in a picture unit carrying an adaptation parameter set information and a second NAL unit that is a last video coding layer (VCL) NAL unit in the picture unit.

  • Publication number: 20240129545
    Abstract: A method of video processing includes performing a conversion between a video and a bitstream of the video according to a rule. The rule specifies that a sub-bitstream extraction process is implemented to generate a sub-bitstream for decoding. The sub-bitstream extraction process is configured to extract, from the bitstream, a sub-bitstream with a target highest temporal identifier. The rule specifies that, during the extracting, upon removing a video coding layer (VCL) network abstraction layer (NAL) unit, filler data units and filler supplemental enhancement information (SEI) messages in SEI NAL units that are associated with the VCL NAL unit are also removed.

  • Publication number: 20240129542
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for processing of video are described. The processing may include video encoding, decoding or transcoding. One example video processing method includes performing a conversion between a video including a current picture including a current subpicture including a current slice and a bitstream of the video. The bitstream conforms to a format rule that disallows an active entry in a reference picture list of the current slice from including a first picture that precedes in a decoding order a second picture that includes a step-wise temporal sublayer access subpicture in response to conditions associated with at least the first picture and the current subpicture.

  • Publication number: 20240129494
    Abstract: A video coding mechanism is disclosed. The mechanism includes partitioning a picture into a plurality of tiles. A number of the tiles are included in a tile group. The mechanism determines whether the tile group is a raster scan tile group or a rectangular tile group. The number of tiles in the tile group is determined based on whether the tile group is the raster scan tile group or the rectangular tile group. The tiles are encoded into a bitstream based on the tile group. The bitstream is stored for communication toward a decoder.

  • Publication number: 20240121417
    Abstract: Examples of video encoding methods and apparatus and video decoding methods and apparatus are described. An example method of video processing includes performing a conversion between a video and a bitstream of the video. The bitstream includes network abstraction layer (NAL) units for multiple video layers according to a rule. The rule defines a sub-bitstream extraction process by which NAL units are removed from the bitstream to generate an output bitstream, and specifies to remove all supplemental enhancement information (SEI) NAL units that contain a non-scalable-nested SEI message with a particular payload type, responsive to a list of NAL unit header layer identifier values in an output layer set (OLS) with a target OLS index not including all values of NAL unit header layer identifiers in all video coding layer (VCL) NAL units in the bitstream that is input to the sub-bitstream extraction process.

  • Publication number: 20240121389
    Abstract: Several techniques for video encoding and video decoding are described. One example method includes performing a conversion between a video block of a video and a bitstream of the video. The video block uses a low frequency non-separable transform for the conversion. The bitstream conforms to a format rule specifying that a syntax element is included at a syntax level for the bitstream. The syntax element is indicative of whether use of a scaling matrix which is derived from a reference scaling list is enabled for the video block. The syntax level is a sequence level, a picture level, or a slice level.
