  • Patent number: 12200262
    Abstract: A video coding mechanism is disclosed. The mechanism includes receiving a bitstream at a decoder. The bitstream comprises one or more layers and a scalable nesting supplemental enhancement information (SEI) message in a current SEI network abstraction layer (NAL) unit. The scalable nesting SEI message contains scalable-nested SEI messages and a scalable nesting all layers flag (all_layers_flag) that specifies whether the scalable-nested SEI messages apply to all layers that have a layer identifier (Id) that is greater than or equal to a layer Id of the current SEI NAL unit. A coded picture is decoded from the one or more layers to produce a decoded picture. The decoded picture is forwarded for display as part of a decoded video sequence.

    Abstract: A video coding mechanism is disclosed. The mechanism includes receiving a bitstream comprising a current picture including a sub-picture coded according to inter-prediction. A motion vector for a block of the sub-picture is determined. A clipping function is applied to sample locations in a reference block to support application of an interpolation filter when the motion vector points outside of the sub-picture and when a flag is set to indicate the sub-picture is treated as a picture. The interpolation filter is applied to results of the clipping function to obtain a predicted sample value. The block is decoded based on the predicted sample value. The block is forwarded for display as part of a decoded video sequence.
