Assignee: QUALCOMM INCORPORATED
Field: Audio-visual technology (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 9:
10. An apparatus configured to decode video data, the apparatus comprising:
means for determining that a value of a sequence parameter set (SPS) video parameter set identification (ID), within a bitstream including the video data, is equal to zero;
based on the determination that the value of the SPS video parameter set ID is equal to zero, means for determining that a SPS of the video data does not refer to a video parameter set (VPS) and that no VPS is referred to when decoding the video data referring to the SPS;
based on the determination that the value of the SPS video parameter set ID is equal to zero such that the SPS of the video data does not refer to the VPS and that no VPS is referred to when decoding the video data referring to the SPS, means for determining, without processing a syntax element, from the bitstream, that indicates whether the profile-tier-layer structure is present in the SPS, that a profile-tier-layer structure is present within the SPS; and
means for decoding the video data based on data of the profile-tier-layer structure included within the SPS.
