Abstract: An apparatus configured to code video information includes a memory unit and a processor in communication with the memory unit. The memory unit is configured to store video information associated with a base layer and an enhancement layer. The video information comprises at least one enhancement layer (EL) block and at least one co-located base layer (BL) block. The co-located BL block has motion information associated therewith. The processor is configured to, in response to determining that the size of the EL block is smaller than a threshold size, either (1) use less than all of the motion information associated with the co-located BL block to code the EL block, or (2) refrain from using any motion information associated with the co-located BL block to code the EL block. The processor may encode or decode the video information.

Abstract: An apparatus for coding video data according to certain aspects includes a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The memory stores video block information. The video block information includes reference layer block information. The processor determines, based on a parameter of the video block information, a transform function that may be used to code the video block information. The processor may encode or decode the video block information. The transform function may be an alternative transform when the parameter is a predetermined value and a primary transform when the parameter is not the predetermined value. The alternative transform includes one of: a discrete-sine-transform (DST), a Type-I DST, a Type-III DST, a Type-IV DST, a Type-VII DST, a discrete-cosine-transform (DCT), a DCT of different types, and a Karhunen-Loeve transform (KLT).
