Indication of current view dependency on reference view in multiview coding file format

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having instructions stored thereon that upon execution cause one or more processors of a video coding device to:

• parse a track of video data, wherein the track includes one or more views;
• and
• parse information to determine whether a texture view or a depth view of a reference view is required for decoding at least one of the one or more views in the track.

An apparatus configured to parse a video file including coded video content, the apparatus comprising:

• means for parsing a track of video data, wherein the track includes one or more views;
• and
• means for parsing information to determine whether a texture view or a depth view of a reference view is required for decoding at least one of the one or more views in the track.

A method of processing video data, the method comprising:

• composing a track of video data, wherein the track includes one or more views;
• and
• composing information that indicates whether a texture view or a depth view of a reference view is required for decoding at least one of the one or more views in the track.
