Patent ID: 11477450

Abstract:
Methods, apparatus and systems for video bitstream generation and parsing are described. One example bitstream decoding method includes parsing a portion of a video bitstream at a video unit level for a first field indicative of whether a slice height is specified for a subpicture partitioning or for a tile partitioning at the video unit level, parsing, due to determining that the first field indicates that the slice height is specified for the subpicture partitioning, N second fields in the portion of the video bitstream to obtain heights for rectangular slices in the video unit, wherein the heights are indicated in multiple of coding tree unit (CTU) heights, and wherein each rectangular slice comprises one or more CTU rows that belong to a same subpicture, wherein N is a positive integer, and decoding, based on the first field and/or the N second fields, the video bitstream to generate a video.
