Abstract
A video coding mechanism is disclosed. The mechanism includes receiving a bitstream comprising a slice and a luma mapping with chroma scaling (LMCS) adaptation parameter set (APS) including LMCS parameters. The mechanism further includes determining that the LMCS APS is referenced in data related to the slice. The mechanism further includes decoding the slice using LMCS parameters from the LMCS APS based on the reference to the LMCS APS. The mechanism further includes forwarding the slice for display as part of a decoded video sequence.

A method implemented by a decoder, the method comprising:
- receiving a bitstream comprising an luma mapping with chroma scaling (LMCS) adaptation parameter set (APS) including LMCS parameters associated with a coded slice, wherein the LMCS APS is a syntax structure used to signal information for slices, wherein the LMCS parameters are used for an LMCS which is a process that scales chroma values based on luma mappings, and wherein the LMCS APS is referenced by data related to the coded slice;
- obtaining LMCS parameters from the LMCS APS associated with the coded slice;
- and
- decoding the coded slice using LMCS parameters from the LMCS APS,
- wherein the bitstream further comprises an adaptive loop filter (ALF) APS containing ALF parameters, wherein the ALF parameters are used for an ALF which is a filter that is controlled by parameters included in the ALF APS,
- wherein each APS includes an APS identifier (ID) selected from a predefined range,
- wherein the predefined range is determined based on a parameter type of each APS,
- wherein APSs of a particular parameter type share the same predefined range for the APS IDs, and different parameter types of APSs use different predefined ranges of the APS IDs,
- wherein each APS includes an APS parameter type (aps_params_type) set to a predefined value indicating a parameter type of each APS, and the parameter type indicates the ALF parameters or the LMCS parameters.
A method implemented by an encoder, the method comprising:
- determining luma mapping with chroma scaling (LMCS) parameters for a slice;

- and
- a processor configured to:
- obtain LMCS parameters from the LMCS APS associated with the coded slice;
- and
- decode the coded slice using LMCS parameters from the LMCS APS,
- wherein the bitstream further comprises an adaptive loop filter (ALF) APS containing ALF parameters,
- wherein each APS includes an APS identifier (ID) selected from a predefined range,
- wherein the predefined range is determined based on a parameter type of each APS,
- wherein APSs of a particular parameter type share the same predefined range for the APS IDs, and different parameter types of APSs use different predefined ranges of the APS IDs,
