1. A method of controlling intra prediction for encoding of a video sequence, the method being performed by at least one processor, and the method comprising:
based on a reference line index signaling a first reference line nearest to a coding unit, among a plurality of reference lines adjacent to the coding unit, applying intra smoothing on one or more first reference lines comprising the first reference line, among the plurality of reference lines, and
based on the intra smoothing being applied on the one or more first reference lines, applying a position-dependent intra prediction combination (PDPC) on one or more third reference lines comprising the first reference line, among the plurality of reference lines, while preventing application of the PDPC on one or more fourth reference lines other than the one or more third reference lines, among the plurality of reference lines.
