Component dependent intra and inter prediction signaling

A method of decoding performed in a decoder, the method comprising:

• receiving a coded video bitstream comprising a current block, the current block being associated with at least a first color component and a second color component;
• obtaining coded information of the first color component and the second color component associated with the current block;
• determining a first prediction mode selected from an intra prediction mode, an inter prediction mode, or a combined intra-inter prediction mode for the first color component associated with the current block;
• determining a second prediction mode selected from the intra prediction mode, the inter prediction mode, or the combined intra-inter prediction mode for the second color component associated with the current block, the second prediction mode being different from the first prediction mode;
• and
• reconstructing the current block based on predicting the first color component of the current block in the first prediction mode and predicting the second color component of the current block in the second prediction mode.
