Claim 0:
1. One or more non-transitory, computer-readable storage media having instructions stored thereon, that when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:
determining whether to partition a current block of video data into a plurality of sub-blocks;
determining an intra-prediction mode for the current block; and
when the current block is partitioned into the plurality of sub-blocks, performing intra-prediction on each of the sub-blocks, based on the intra-prediction mode,
wherein whether to partition the current block into the plurality of sub-blocks is determined based on a flag,
wherein when a size of the current block is smaller than a threshold, parsing of the flag from a bitstream is omitted, and
wherein when the parsing of the flag is omitted, the flag is considered to indicate that the current block is not partitioned into the plurality of sub-blocks.
