Abstract
A system for decoding a video bitstream includes receiving a reference picture set associated with a frame including a set of reference picture identifiers. The reference picture set identifies one or more reference pictures to be used for inter-prediction of the frame based upon its associated least significant bits of a picture order count based upon the reference picture identifiers. The one or more reference pictures is a second or greater previous frame to the frame having the matching reference picture identifier.
Claims18
A device for decoding pictures, the device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a memory comprising instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, perform operations comprising:
- decoding, from a slice header of a video bitstream, a least significant bits (LSB) syntax element;
- determining, based at least in part on the LSB syntax element, an LSB value of a picture order count (POC), wherein the POC corresponds to a reference picture in a reference picture set;
- after decoding the LSB syntax element, determining that the slice header includes a most significant bits (MSB) syntax element;
- based on the determining that the slice header includes the MSB syntax element, decoding the MSB syntax element;
- determining, based at least in part on the MSB syntax element, an MSB value of the POC;
- and
- deriving the reference picture set using the LSB value of the POC and the MSB value of the POC.
A method of decoding pictures, the method comprising:
- decoding, from a slice header of a video bitstream, a least significant bits (LSB) syntax element;
- determining, based at least in part on the LSB syntax element, an LSB value of a picture order count (POC), wherein the POC corresponds to a reference picture in a reference picture set;
- after decoding the LSB syntax element, determining that the slice header includes a most significant bits (MSB) syntax element;
- based on the determining that the slice header includes the MSB syntax element, decoding the MSB syntax element;
- determining, based at least in part on the MSB syntax element, an MSB value of the POC;
- and
- deriving the reference picture set using the LSB value of the POC and the MSB value of the POC.
A device for encoding pictures, the device comprising:
- one or more processors;
- and
- a memory comprising instructions which, when executed by the one or more processors, perform operations comprising:
- deriving a reference picture set using a least significant bits (LSB) value of a picture order count (POC) and a most significant bits (MSB) value of the POC, wherein the POC corresponds to a reference picture in the reference picture set;
- encoding, in a slice header, an LSB syntax element that corresponds to the LSB value, an MSB syntax element that corresponds to the MSB value, and an indication separate from the MSB syntax element that indicates that the MSB syntax element is present, wherein the MSB syntax element is encoded in the slice header after the LSB syntax element and the indication;
- and
- transmitting the slice header via a video bitstream.
A method of encoding pictures, the method comprising:
- deriving a reference picture set using a least significant bits (LSB) value of a picture order count (POC) and a most significant bits (MSB) value of the POC, wherein the POC corresponds to a reference picture in the reference picture set;
- encoding, in a slice header, an LSB syntax element that corresponds to the LSB value, an MSB syntax element that corresponds to the MSB value, and an indication separate from the MSB syntax element that indicates that the MSB syntax element is present, wherein the MSB syntax element is encoded in the slice header after the LSB syntax element and the indication;
- and
- transmitting the slice header via a video bitstream.
