Poc value design for multi-layer video coding

A method of encoding video data, the method comprising:

• encoding data that indicates a picture order count (POC) reset for a POC value of a first picture of a first layer of multi-layer video data, wherein the first picture is included in an access unit;
• and
• based on the data that indicates the POC reset for the POC value of the first picture and prior to decoding the first picture, decrementing POC values of all pictures stored to a decoded picture buffer (DPB) that precede the first picture in coding order including at least one picture of a second layer of the multi-layer video data.

A device for coding video data, the device comprising:

• means for coding data that indicates a picture order count (POC) reset for a POC value of a first picture of a first layer of the multi-layer video data, wherein the first picture is included in an access unit;
• and
• based on the data that indicates the POC reset for the POC value of the first picture and prior to decoding the first picture, means for decrementing POC values of all pictures stored to the DPB that precede the first picture in coding order including at least one picture of a second layer of the multi-layer video data.

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored thereon instructions that, when executed, cause a processor of a device for coding video data to:

• code data that indicates a picture order count (POC) reset for a POC value of a first picture of a first layer of the multi-layer video data, wherein the first picture is included in an access unit;
• and
• based on the data that indicates the POC reset for the POC value of the first picture and prior to decoding the first picture, decrement POC values of all pictures stored to the DPB that precede the first picture in coding order including at least one picture of a second layer of the multi-layer video data.
