Abstract
A method of decoding a coded video bitstream implemented by a video decoder is disclosed. The method includes determining that a coded video sequence (CVS) of the coded video bitstream includes a video coding layer (VCL) network abstraction layer (NAL) unit having a gradual decoding refresh (GDR) network abstraction layer (NAL) unit type (GDR_NUT), the VCL NAL unit having the GDR_NUT containing a GDR picture; initiating decoding of the CVS at the GDR picture; and generating an image according to the CVS as decoded. A corresponding method of encoding is also disclosed.

A method of decoding a coded video bitstream implemented by a video decoder, comprising:
- receiving, by the video decoder, the coded video bitstream, wherein the coded video bitstream comprises a coded video sequence (CVS) including a gradual decoding refresh (GDR) access unit, wherein the GDR access unit contains a plurality of video coding layer (VCL) network abstraction layer (NAL) units for a GDR picture, each of the plurality of VCL NAL units for the GDR picture has a GDR NAL unit type (GDR_NUT);
- and
- starting, by the video decoder, decoding of the CVS from the GDR picture.
A method of encoding a video bitstream implemented by a video encoder, the method comprising:
- obtaining, by the video encoder, a gradual decoding refresh (GDR) picture for a video sequence;
- encoding, by the video encoder, the GDR picture into a GDR access unit containing a plurality of video coding layer (VCL) network abstraction layer (NAL) units for the GDR picture, having a GDR NAL unit type (GDR_NUT) for the video sequence;
- and
- generating, by the video encoder, a bitstream containing the video sequence having the plurality of the VCL NAL units with the GDR_NUT.
A non-transitory storage medium which includes a coded video bitstream, wherein the coded video bitstream comprises a coded video sequence (CVS) including a gradual decoding refresh (GDR) access unit, wherein the GDR access unit contains a plurality of video coding layer (VCL) network abstraction layer (NAL) units for a GDR picture, each of the plurality of VCL NAL units for the GDR picture has a GDR NAL unit type (GDR_NUT).
