  • Publication number: 20240107046
    Abstract: Several techniques for video encoding and video decoding are described. One example method includes performing a conversion between a video and a bitstream of the video including one or more output layer sets (OLSs) according to a rule. The rule specifies that a subpicture level information (SLI) supplemental enhancement information (SEI) message includes information about a level of subpicture sequences in a set of coded video sequences of the one or more OLSs to which the SLI SEI message applies. A syntax structure of the SLI SEI message includes at least (1) a first syntax element specifying a maximum number of sublayers for the subpicture sequences and (2) a second syntax element specifying whether level information for the subpicture sequences is present for one or more sublayer representations.

  • Patent number: 11943431
    Abstract: A method of decoding a coded video bitstream is provided. The method includes receiving a bitstream containing an external decoder refresh (EDR) picture and a list of pictures for the EDR picture. The list of pictures lists pictures referred to by entries in a first reference picture list, pictures referred to by entries in a second reference picture list, and external pictures in increasing decoding order. A difference between picture order count values for any two consecutive pictures in the list of pictures is greater than one half of a negative of maximum picture order count least significant bits and less than one half of the maximum picture order count least significant bits. The method further includes obtaining an external picture from the the external pictures referred to in the list of pictures and decoding the EDR picture using the external picture that was obtained.

    Abstract: A method of decoding a coded video bitstream is provided. The method includes parsing a parameter set represented in the coded video bitstream. The parameter set contains a set of syntax elements that include a set of reference picture list structures. The method also includes parsing a slice header of a current slice represented in the coded video bitstream. The slice header contains an index of a reference picture list structure among the set of reference picture list structures in the parameter set. The method further includes deriving, based on the set of syntax elements in the parameter set and the index of the reference picture list structure, a reference picture list of the current slice. The method also includes obtaining, based on the reference picture list, at least one reconstructed block of the current slice.
