Decoder for decoding a picture from a data stream, configured to check whether a plurality of coding parameters, which are contained in the data stream, relate to a predetermined portion of the picture and control whether a prediction residual transform mode and a quantization accuracy with respect to the predetermined portion, are indicative of a coding parameter setting corresponding to a lossless prediction residual coding; and responsive to the plurality of coding parameters being indicative of the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding, setting one or more predetermined coding options relating to one or more tools of the decoder for processing a prediction residual corrected predictive reconstruction with respect to the predetermined portion so that the one or more tools are disabled with respect to the predetermined portion, the prediction residual corrected predictive reconstruction being a reconstructed signal within a prediction loop of the decoder or output from the prediction loop of the decoder, characterized in that the decoder is further configured to read from the data stream a lossless coding syntax element which indicates whether a predetermined region of the picture, which covers or contains the predetermined portion, is coded into the data stream using lossless coding or lossy coding, and set the one or more predetermined coding options so that the one or more tools are disabled with respect to the predetermined portion if the lossless coding syntax element indicates that the predetermined region of the picture is coded into the data stream using lossless coding, and if the plurality of coding parameters are indicative of the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding and to a predetermined tool state if the plurality of coding parameters not equal the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding or the lossless coding syntax element indicates that the predetermined region of the picture is coded into the data stream using lossy coding. check whether a plurality of coding parameters, which are contained in the data stream, relate to a predetermined portion of the picture and control whether a prediction residual transform mode and a quantization accuracy with respect to the predetermined portion, are indicative of a coding parameter setting corresponding to a lossless prediction residual coding; and responsive to the plurality of coding parameters being indicative of the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding, setting one or more predetermined coding options relating to one or more tools of the decoder for processing a prediction residual corrected predictive reconstruction with respect to the predetermined portion so that the one or more tools are disabled with respect to the predetermined portion, the prediction residual corrected predictive reconstruction being a reconstructed signal within a prediction loop of the decoder or output from the prediction loop of the decoder, characterized in that the decoder is further configured to read from the data stream a lossless coding syntax element which indicates whether a predetermined region of the picture, which covers or contains the predetermined portion, is coded into the data stream using lossless coding or lossy coding, and set the one or more predetermined coding options so that the one or more tools are disabled with respect to the predetermined portion if the lossless coding syntax element indicates that the predetermined region of the picture is coded into the data stream using lossless coding, and if the plurality of coding parameters are indicative of the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding and to a predetermined tool state if the plurality of coding parameters not equal the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding or the lossless coding syntax element indicates that the predetermined region of the picture is coded into the data stream using lossy coding. so that the one or more tools are disabled with respect to the predetermined portion if the lossless coding syntax element indicates that the predetermined region of the picture is coded into the data stream using lossless coding, and if the plurality of coding parameters are indicative of the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding and to a predetermined tool state if the plurality of coding parameters not equal the coding parameter setting corresponding to the lossless prediction residual coding or the lossless coding syntax element indicates that the predetermined region of the picture is coded into the data stream using lossy coding.
