Definitions

• FIG. 4 is a flowchart illustrating an example method for encoding a current block.
• FIG. 5 is a flowchart illustrating an example method for decoding a current block of video data.
• a video encoder may generate encoded pictures for a set of pictures of the video data.
• the video encoder may include a picture header NAL unit in a bitstream that comprises the encoded pictures.
• the picture header NAL unit includes a syntax element that indicates that a picture associated with the picture header NAL unit must be either an IRAP or a Gradual Decoder Refresh (GDR) picture. Because of this syntax element, a device performing random access may directly identify the picture header NAL unit as being associated with an IRAP or GDR picture without needing to search backward in the bitstream to find this picture header NAL unit.
• GDR Gradual Decoder Refresh
• Video source 104 of source device 102 may include a video capture device, such as a video camera, a video archive containing previously captured raw video, and/or a video feed interface to receive video from a video content provider.
• video source 104 may generate computer graphics-based data as the source video, or a combination of live video, archived video, and computer-generated video.
• video encoder 200 encodes the captured, pre-captured, or computer-generated video data.
• Video encoder 200 may rearrange the pictures from the received order (sometimes referred to as “display order”) into a coding order for coding.
• Video encoder 200 may generate a bitstream including encoded video data.
• Source device 102 may then output the encoded video data via output interface 108 onto computer-readable medium 110 for reception and/or retrieval by, e.g., input interface 122 of destination device 116.

• video encoder 200 and video decoder 300 may use a single QTBT or MTT structure to represent each of the luminance and chrominance components, while in other examples, video encoder 200 and video decoder 300 may use two or more QTBT or MTT structures, such as one QTBT/MTT structure for the luminance component and another QTBT/MTT structure for both chrominance components (or two QTBT/MTT structures for respective chrominance components).
• Video encoder 200 and video decoder 300 may be configured to use quadtree partitioning per HEVC, QTBT partitioning, MTT partitioning, or other partitioning structures. For purposes of explanation, the description of the techniques of this disclosure is presented with respect to QTBT partitioning. However, it should be understood that the techniques of this disclosure may also be applied to video coders configured to use quadtree partitioning, or other types of partitioning as well.
• a slice may be an integer number of bricks of a picture that may be exclusively contained in a single network abstraction layer (NAL) unit.
• NAL network abstraction layer
• a slice includes either a number of complete tiles or only a consecutive sequence of complete bricks of one tile.
• video encoder 200 may select an intra-prediction mode to generate the prediction block.
• Some examples of VVC provide sixty-seven intra prediction modes, including various directional modes, as well as planar mode and DC mode.
• video encoder 200 selects an intra-prediction mode that describes neighboring samples to a current block (e.g., a block of a CU) from which to predict samples of the current block. Such samples may generally be above, above and to the left, or to the left of the current block in the same picture as the current block, assuming video encoder 200 codes CTUs and CUs in raster scan order (left to right, top to bottom).
• Video encoder 200 encodes data representing the prediction mode for a current block.
• video encoder 200 may calculate residual data for the block.
• the residual data such as a residual block, represents sample by sample differences between the block and a prediction block for the block, formed using the corresponding prediction mode.
• Video encoder 200 may apply one or more transforms to the residual block, to produce transformed data in a transform domain instead of the sample domain.
• video encoder 200 may apply a discrete cosine transform (DCT), an integer transform, a wavelet transform, or a conceptually similar transform to residual video data.
• DCT discrete cosine transform
• an integer transform an integer transform
• wavelet transform or a conceptually similar transform
• video encoder 200 may generate a bitstream including encoded video data, e.g., syntax elements describing partitioning of a picture into blocks (e.g., CUs) and prediction and/or residual information for the blocks.

• a bitstream may comprise a sequence of network abstraction layer (NAL) units.
