Abstract: A deblocking the method. The method includes deblocking a block boundary between a first block, B1, and a second block, B2, with the restriction that not more than 5 samples are modified on the B2 side of the block boundary as a result of the deblocking. The deblocking method also includes deblocking a sub-block boundary within the B2 block such that not more than 2 samples on the side of the sub-block boundary within the B2 block that is closest to the block boundary between B1 and B2 are modified by the deblocking.

Abstract: Delta quantized coefficients of a pixel block in a picture in a first representation of a video sequence are encoded based on information derived from estimated quantized coefficients for the pixel block. The delta quantized coefficients represent a difference between actual quantized coefficients of the pixel block derived by encoding at least a portion of the picture in the first representation of the video sequence and the estimated quantized coefficients. The estimated quantized coefficients represent a difference between a reconstructed block of a corresponding picture in a second representation of the video sequence and a prediction block obtained based on intra mode information and/or inter motion information derived by encoding the picture in the first representation of the video sequence.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an encoder, transcoder and methods thereof. A transcoder embodiment involves transcoding a bitstream representing an original video source from an input video format to an output video format. An encoder embodiment involves providing transform coefficients in side information related to an encoded video bitstream.

Abstract: A method is disclosed performed in an encoder for encoding video pictures into a video bit stream, the method comprising: obtaining a denoised version of a reference picture; performing a matching procedure at least once, the matching procedure comprising matching a reference matching area of the reference picture to a matching area of a second picture and matching a reference matching area of the denoised version to the matching area of the second picture, and encoding a block of a current picture by selecting, for the block, a first prediction area based on a first reference area of the reference picture or a second prediction area based on a second reference area of the denoised version, wherein the prediction area having lowest matching error to the corresponding matching area of the second picture is selected. A corresponding method in a decoder is disclosed, and encoder, decoder, computer programs and computer program products.

Abstract: An example method includes receiving a video bitstream with a high fidelity input format and side information related to the video bitstream. The side information includes a video bitstream representing the original video source with a low fidelity input format, coding parameters optimized based on knowledge of the original video source, transform coefficients, indicative of a residual between the original video source and a decoded version of the high fidelity format. The method further includes decoding the side information to generate transcoding guiding information, estimating a representation of video bitstream with a low fidelity output format, based on the received bit stream and the generated transcoding guiding information, improving the estimated low-fidelity representation by adding the transform coefficients of the side information to transform coefficients generated from the estimated low-fidelity representation, and encoding the improved estimated representation of the low-fidelity bitstream.

Abstract: A method of reducing blocking artifacts associated with pixels of a block boundary of an image. Pixel values of pixels from a first block and a neighboring block, being located on opposite sides of a block boundary, are evaluated. A first offset for the two pixels of each block located next to the block boundary is calculated, after which the first offset is compared to a first threshold value. If abs[first offset] =first threshold, the pixel values of consecutive pixels from the first block and the pixel values of consecutive pixels from the second block are modified by applying weak filtering or no filtering at all on the respective pixels.

Abstract: A method of processing pixels in a picture of a video sequence comprising multiple pictures comprises identifying a pixel to be processed in the picture for which a variation in a linear representation of a color of the pixel that is smaller than a first threshold value results in a variation in a non-linear representation of the color that is larger than a second threshold value. The variation in the linear representation of the color also results in a variation in a luminance and chrominance based representation of the color that is smaller than a third threshold value. The method also comprises processing the identified pixel by modifying a value of at least one color component of the pixel. The method achieves a selective denoising of particular color components in certain situations to reduce the encoding cost yet do not significantly affect the visual quality.
