Claim 7:
8. A device comprising:
at least one memory configured to store program code; and
at least one processor configured to read the program code and operate as instructed by the program code, the program code including:
identifying code configured to cause the at least one processor to identify a maximum number of temporal sublayers that is allowed in a coded video sequence referring to a parameter set in a video parameter set (VPS) field and a sequence parameter set (SPS) field respectively, wherein when a SPS identifier field, which an identifier for an SPS for reference by other syntax elements is greater than 0, and when a first syntax element of a VPS indicates that a number of temporal sublayers is the same for all layers in each coded video sequence referring to the VPS, a value of the VPS field is equal to a value of the SPS field; and
decoding code that is configured to cause the at least one processor to decode the coded video sequence based on the identified maximum number of temporal sublayers that is allowed in the coded video sequence referring to the parameter set.
