The deblocking filter is used in an image coding process, for deblocking a block edge between a first coding block and a second coding block of an image. The first block has SA samples perpendicular to the block edge by N samples parallel to the block edge, and the second block has SB samples perpendicular to the block edge by N samples parallel to the block edge. No more than IA samples of the first coding block are used as first filter input values, and no more than IB samples of the second coding block are used as second filter input values. No more than MA samples of the first coding block are modified as first filter output values, and no more than MB samples of the second coding block are modified as second filter output values.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides methods and devices of processing a block according to a merge candidate list, the method comprising: constructing a first list according to motion information of neighboring blocks of a current block; obtaining prediction information of the current block; when the prediction information of the current block indicates that a sub-block prediction is applied to the current block, obtaining a uni-prediction candidate for the current block according to the first list; using, the uni-prediction candidate for the current block to perform inter prediction of the current block. According to embodiment of the present disclosure, the regular merge list can be directly used and there is no need to explicitly generate the uni-prediction merge candidate list for sub-block prediction.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for marking availability of a candidate coding block for merge estimation of a current coding block within a coding tree unit, CTU, which includes multiple coding blocks. Initially, the candidate coding block is marked as available. The candidate coding block is marked as unavailable when a predefined location of the candidate coding block is included within an extended merge estimation region, MER. The extended MER includes a current MER in which the current coding block is located and at least a portion of another MER, adjacent to the current MER.
