Abstract: A video coding mechanism for viewpoint dependent video coding is disclosed. The mechanism includes mapping a spherical video sequence into a plurality of sub-picture video sequences. The mechanism further includes encoding the plurality of sub-picture video sequences as sub-picture bitstreams to support merging of the plurality of sub-picture bitstreams, the encoding ensuring that each sub-picture bitstream is self-referenced and two or more of the sub-picture bitstreams can be merged to generate a single video bitstream using a lightweight bitstream rewriting process that does not involve changing of any block-level coding results. A mergeable indication is encoded to indicate that the sub-picture bitstream containing the indication is compatible with a multi-bitstream merge function for reconstruction of the spherical video sequence. A set of the sub-picture bitstreams and the mergeable indication are transmitted toward the decoder to support decoding and displaying a virtual reality video viewport.

Abstract: A video coding mechanism is disclosed. The mechanism includes receiving a bitstream comprising a current picture including a sub-picture coded according to inter-prediction. A motion vector for a block of the sub-picture is determined. A clipping function is applied to sample locations in a reference block to support application of an interpolation filter when the motion vector points outside of the sub-picture and when a flag is set to indicate the sub-picture is treated as a picture. The interpolation filter is applied to results of the clipping function to obtain a predicted sample value. The block is decoded based on the predicted sample value. The block is forwarded for display as part of a decoded video sequence.

Abstract: Provided are a method, an apparatus, a computer program product and a non-transitory computer-readable medium for video coding. The method comprises performing an intra-prediction process of a block comprising samples to be predicted, wherein an interpolation filter is applied to reference samples of the block during the intra-prediction process of the block. The interpolation filter is selected on the basis of a subpixel offset between the reference samples and the samples to be predicted, and a size of a main reference side used in the intra-prediction process is determined according to a length of the interpolation filter and an intra-prediction mode that provides, out of a 10 set of available intra-prediction modes, the greatest non-integer value of said subpixel offset, wherein the main reference side comprises the reference samples.

Abstract: A method of decoding a coded video bitstream implemented by a video decoder is provided. The method includes the video decoder determining whether a gradual decoding refresh (GDR) picture in the coded video bitstream is an initial picture in decoding order or the initial picture following an end of sequence (EOS) network abstraction layer (NAL) unit in the decoding order; setting a flag to a value to prevent the GDR picture from being output when the GDR picture is the initial picture in decoding order or the initial picture following the EOS NAL unit in the decoding order; decoding the GDR picture; and storing the GDR picture in a decoded picture buffer (DPB).
