  • VVC Versatile Video Coding
  • Video coding standards have evolved primarily through the development of the well-known ITU-T and ISO/IEC standards.
  • the ITU-T produced H.261 and H.263, ISO/IEC produced MPEG-1 and MPEG-4 Visual, and the two organizations jointly produced the H.262/MPEG-2 Video and H.264/MPEG-4 Advanced Video Coding (AVC) and H.265/HEVC standards.

  • VVC Versatile Video Coding
  • VSEI Versatile Supplemental Enhancement Information
  • V-PCC Video Based Point Cloud Compression
  • V3C Visual Volumetric Video-based Coding
  • V-PCC Video-based Point Cloud Compression
  • V-PCC specifies data types like occupancy, geometry, texture attribute, material attribute, transparency attribute, reflectance attribute, and normal attribute that can be coded using a specific video codec such as VVC, HEVC, AVC, etc.
  • VVC includes a similar support of temporal scalability as in HEVC.
  • Such support includes the signaling of temporal ID in the NAL unit header, the restriction that pictures of a particular temporal sublayer cannot be used for inter prediction reference by pictures of a lower temporal sublayer, the sub-bitstream extraction process, and the requirement that each sub-bitstream extraction output of an appropriate input must be a conforming bitstream.
  • Media-aware network elements can utilize the temporal ID in the NAL unit header for stream adaptation purposes based on temporal scalability.
  • VVC In AVC and HEVC, the spatial resolution of pictures cannot change unless a new sequence using a new SPS starts, with an IRAP picture.
  • VVC enables picture resolution change within a sequence at a position without encoding an TRAP picture, which is always intra-coded. This feature is sometimes referred to as reference picture resampling (RPR), as the feature needs resampling of a reference picture used for inter prediction when that reference picture has a different resolution than the current picture being decoded.
  • RPR reference picture resampling
  • the scaling ratio is restricted to be larger than or equal to 1/2 (2 times downsampling from the reference picture to the current picture), and less than or equal to 8 (8 times upsampling).
  • the horizontal and vertical scaling ratios are derived based on picture width and height, and the left, right, top and bottom scaling offsets specified for the reference picture and the current picture.
  • RPR allows resolution change without the need of coding an IRAP picture, which causes a momentary bit rate spike in streaming or video conferencing scenarios, e.g., to cope with network condition changes.
  • RPR also can be used in application scenarios wherein zooming of the entire video region or some region of interest is needed.
  • the scaling window offsets are allowed to be negative to support a wider range of zooming-based applications. Negative scaling window offsets also enable extraction of subpicture sequences out of a multi-layer bitstream while keeping the same scaling window for the extracted sub-bitstream as in the original bitstream.
  • RPR in VVC is carried out as part of the same process on a block level where the derivation of sample positions and motion vector scaling are performed during motion compensation.
  • a change of picture resolution within a CLVS is disallowed when the pictures in the CLVS have multiple subpictures per picture. Furthermore, decoder side motion vector refinement, bi-directional optical flow, and prediction refinement with optical flow are not applied when RPR is used between the current picture and the reference pictures.
  • the collocated picture for the derivation of temporal motion vector candidates is also restricted to have the same picture size, scaling window offsets, and CTU size as the current picture.
  • each picture store (a slot in the DPB for storage of one decoded picture) occupies the buffer size as required for storing a decoded picture having the maximum picture resolution.
  • VVC Scalability is supported in VVC but is included only in the multi-layer profiles. Different from the scalability supports in any earlier video coding standards, including extensions of AVC and HEVC, the design of VVC scalability has been made friendly to single-layer decoder implementations as much as possible.
  • the decoding capability for multi-layer bitstreams are specified in a manner as if there was only a single layer in the bitstream. For example, the decoding capability, such as the DPB size, is specified in a manner that is independent of the number of layers in the bitstream to be decoded. Basically, a decoder designed for single-layer bitstreams does not need significant changes to be able to decode multi-layer bitstreams.
  • an IRAP AU is required to contain a picture for each of the layers present in the CVS, which avoids the need of specifying a layer-wise startup decoding process, and 2) a much simpler design for POC signaling, instead of the complicated POC resetting mechanism, is included in VVC, to make sure that the derived POC values are the same for all pictures in an AU.
  • the information about layers and layer dependency is included in the VPS.
  • the information of OLS s is provided for signaling of which layers are included in an OLS, which layers are output, and other information such as PTL and HRD parameters associated with each OLS. Similar to HEVC, there are three modes of operations to output either all layers, only the highest layer, or particular indicated layers in a custom output mode.
  • the design in HEVC allows a layer to belong to an OLS that was neither an output layer nor a layer required for decoding an output layer.
  • the design requires any layer in an OLS to be either an output layer or a layer required for decoding an output layer. Therefore, in VVC OLSs are signaled by indicating the output layers of an OLS and then other layers belonging to an OLS are simply derived by the layer dependencies indicated in the VPS. Furthermore, VVC requires each layer to be included in at least one OLS.
  • VVC may exclude some NAL units that belong to non-output layers mapped to an OLS.
  • an OLS for VVC consists of the set of layers that are mapped to the OLS with non-output layers including only IRAP or GDR pictures with ph_recovery_poc_cnt equal to 0 or pictures from the sublayers that are used for inter-layer prediction.
  • FIG. 7 shows an example of a two-layer bitstream with vps_max_tid_il_ref_pics_plus1[1][0] equal to 0, i.e. a sub-bitstream for which only IRAP pictures from layer L0 are kept when OLS2 is extracted.
  • AUs are allowed to have layers with non-aligned RAPs.
  • the access unit delimiter AUD was extended compared to HEVC with a flag indicating whether the AU is an IRAP AU or GDR AU.
  • the AUD is mandated to be present at such IRAP or GDR AUs when the VPS indicates multiple layers.
  • the AUD is completely optional as in HEVC because in this case RAPs can be easily detected from the NAL unit type of the first slice in the AU and the respective parameter sets.
  • a VCL NAL unit of a first layer can refer to an SPS, PPS, or APS with the same or a lower layer ID value, as long as all OLSs that include the first layer also include the layer identified by the lower layer ID value.
  • VUI is a syntax structure sent as part of the SPS (and possibly also in VPS in HEVC). VUI carries information that does not affect the normative decoding process, but that can be important for proper rendering of the coded video.
  • SEI assists in processes related to decoding, display or other purposes. Same as VUI, SEI does not affect the normative decoding process, either. SEI is carried in SEI messages. Decoder support of SEI messages is optional. However, SEI messages do affect bitstream conformance (e.g., if the syntax of an SEI message in a bitstream does not follow the specification, then the bitstream is not conforming) and some SEI messages are needed in the HRD specification.
  • VUI syntax structure and most SEI messages used with VVC are not specified in the VVC specification, but rather in the VSEI specification.
  • the SEI messages necessary for HRD conformance testing are specified in the VVC specification.
  • VVC v1 defines five SEI messages relevant for HRD conformance testing and VSEI v1 specifies 20 additional SEI messages.
  • the SEI messages carried in the VSEI specification do not directly impact conforming decoder behavior and have been defined so that they can be used in a coding-format-agnostic manner, allowing VSEI to be used in the future with other video coding standards in addition to VVC.
  • the VSEI specification refers to variables, whose values are set within the VVC specification.
  • VUI syntax structure of VVC focuses only on information relevant for proper rendering of the pictures and does not contain any timing information or bitstream restriction indications.
  • the VUI is signaled within the SPS, which includes a length field before the VUI syntax structure to signal the length of the VUI payload in bytes. This makes it possible for a decoder to easily jump over the information, and more importantly, allows convenient future VUI syntax extensions by directly adding new syntax elements to the end of the VUI syntax structure, in a similar manner as SEI message syntax extension.
  • the VUI syntax structure contains the following information:
  • the information is considered unspecified and has to be conveyed via external means or specified by the application if the content of the bitstream is intended for rendering on a display.
  • Table 1 lists all the SEI messages specified for VVC v1, as well as the specification containing their syntax and semantics. Of the 20 SEI messages specified in the VSEI specification, many were inherited from HEVC (for example, the filler payload and both user data SEI messages). Some SEI messages are essential for correct processing or rendering of the coded video content. This is for example the case for the mastering display color volume, the content light level information or the alternative transfer characteristics SEI messages which are particularly relevant for HDR content. Other examples include the equirectangular projection, sphere rotation, region-wise packing or omnidirectional viewport SEI messages, which are relevant for signaling and processing of 360° video content.

  • New SEI messages that were specified for VVC v1 include the frame-field information SEI message, the sample aspect ratio information SEI message, and the subpicture level information SEI message.
  • the frame-field information SEI message contains information to indicate how the associated picture should be displayed (such as field parity or frame repetition period), the source scan type of the associated picture and whether the associated picture is a duplicate of a previous picture. This information used to be signaled in the picture timing SEI message in previous video coding standards, together with the timing information of the associated picture.
  • the frame-field information and timing information are two different kinds of information that are not necessarily signaled together.
  • a typical example consists in signaling the timing information at the systems level, but signaling the frame-field information within the bitstream. It was therefore decided to remove the frame-field information from the picture timing SEI message and signal it within a dedicated SEI message instead. This change also made it possible to modify the syntax of the frame-field information to convey additional and clearer instructions to the display, such as the pairing of fields together, or more values for frame repetition.
  • the sample-aspect ratio SEI message enables signaling different sample aspect ratios for different pictures within the same sequence, whereas the corresponding information contained in the VUI applies to the whole sequence. It may be relevant when using the reference picture resampling feature with scaling factors that cause different pictures of the same sequence to have different sample aspect ratios.
  • the subpicture level information SEI message provides information of levels for the subpicture sequences.
  • VVC supports multi-layer scalabilities. However, given a VVC multi-layer bitstream, it is unknown whether the bitstream of an OLS is a multiview bitstream or just a bitstream consisting of multiple layers with SNR and/or spatial scalabilities. Furthermore, given a VVC multi-layer bitstream, it is unknown whether there is one or layers representing auxiliary information such as alpha, depth, etc., and if yes, which layers represent what.

  • the scalability dimension SEI message provides the scalability dimension information for each layer in bitstreamInScope (defined below), such as 1) when bitstreamInScope may be a multiview bitstream, the view ID of each layer; and 2) when there may be auxillary information (such as depth or alpha) carried by one or more layers in bitstreamInScope, the auxillary ID of each layer.
  • the bitstreamInScope is the sequence of AUs that consists, in decoding order, of the AU containing the current scalability dimension SEI message, followed by zero or more AUs, including all subsequent AUs up to but not including any subsequent AU that contains a scalability dimension SEI message.
