Abstract
A video coder signals, in a bitstream, a syntax element that indicates whether inter-view/layer reference pictures are ever included in a reference picture list for a current view component/layer representation. A video decoder obtains, from the bitstream, the syntax element that indicates whether inter-view/layer reference pictures are ever included in a reference picture list for a current view component/layer representation. The video decoder decodes the current view component/layer representation.
Claims27
A method for decoding video data, the method comprising:
- obtaining, from a bitstream, a syntax element that indicates whether inter-view/layer reference pictures are ever included in a reference picture list for a current view component/layer representation;
- and
- decoding the current view component/layer representation, wherein when the syntax element indicates that inter-view/layer reference pictures are never included in the reference picture list, the current view component/layer representation is decoded without use of inter-view/layer reference pictures in the reference picture list.
A method of encoding video data, the method comprising:
- signaling, in a bitstream, a syntax element that indicates whether inter-view/layer reference pictures are ever included in a reference picture list for a current view component/layer representation;
- and
- encoding the current view component/layer representation, wherein when the syntax element indicates that inter-view/layer reference pictures are never included in the reference picture list, the current view component/layer representation is not encoded using inter-view/layer reference pictures in the reference picture list.
A video decoding device comprising a storage medium and one or more processors coupled to the storage medium, the one or more processors configured to:
- obtain, from a bitstream, a syntax element that indicates whether inter-view/layer reference pictures are ever included in a reference picture list for a current view component/layer representation;
- and
- decode the current view component/layer representation, wherein when the syntax element indicates that inter-view/layer reference pictures are never included in the reference picture list, the current view component/layer representation is decoded without use of inter-view/layer reference pictures in the reference picture list.
A video decoding device comprising:
- means for obtaining, from a bitstream, a syntax element that indicates whether inter-view/layer reference pictures are ever included in a reference picture list for a current view component/layer representation;
- and
- means for decoding the current view component/layer representation, wherein when the syntax element indicates that inter-view/layer reference pictures are never included in the reference picture list, the current view component/layer representation is decoded without use of inter-view/layer reference pictures in the reference picture list.
