Abstract:
1. A method of changing a reference picture list, comprising: parsing a profile identifier and a slice type from a multiview video bitstream; obtaining inter-view reference information based on the profile identifier; initializing a reference picture list using the inter-view reference information; and modifying the reference picture list in consideration of the slice type, wherein when the multiview video bitstream is a stereo video coded bitstream in accordance with the profile identifier, the inter-view reference information is obtained, wherein the inter-view reference information includes flag information indicating whether a random access picture is used for an inter-view prediction and flag information indicating whether a non-random access picture is used for the inter-view prediction, wherein the random access is a coded picture in which all slices only refer to slices within a same access unit, and wherein the non-random access picture is a picture except the random access picture.
