Abstract
New intra planar modes are introduced for predicting digital video data. As part of the new intra planar modes, various methods are offered for predicting a first sample within a prediction unit, where the first sample is needed for referencing to when processing the new intra planar modes. And once the first sample is successfully predicted, the new intra planar modes are able to predict a sample of video data within the prediction unit by processing a bi-linear interpolation of four previously reconstructed reference samples.

A method for decoding a video signal, the method being performed by an apparatus and comprising:
- determining an intra prediction mode for a current block of the video signal;
- based on the intra prediction mode for the current block being an intra planar prediction mode, predicting a video data sample included in the current block based on a first reference sample, a second reference sample, a third reference sample, and a fourth reference sample,
- the first reference sample being a reconstructed neighboring left sample of the current block and being on a same y-coordinate line as the video data sample,
- the second reference sample being a reconstructed neighboring top sample of the current block and being on a same x-coordinate line as the video data sample,
- the third reference sample being a reconstructed neighboring top-right sample diagonally adjacent to the current block, and
- the fourth reference sample being a reconstructed neighboring bottom-left sample diagonally adjacent to the current block;
- and
- reconstructing the video data sample based on the predicted video data sample,
- wherein a bottom-right video data sample of the current block is predicted based on an average of the third reference sample and the fourth reference sample.
