Abstract:
A coding efficiency increase is achieved by using a common signalization within the bitstream with regard to activation of merging and activation of the skip mode. One possible state of one or more syntax elements within the bitstream may signalize for a current sample set of a picture that the sample set is to be merged and has no prediction residual encoded and inserted into the bitstream. A common flag may signalize whether the coding parameters associated with a current sample set are to be set according to a merge candidate or to be retrieved from the bitstream, and whether the current sample set of the picture is to be reconstructed based on a prediction signal depending on the coding parameters associated with the current sample set, without any residual data, or to be reconstructed by refining the prediction signal depending on the coding parameters associated with the current sample set by means of residual data within the bitstream.

Claim (Index 1):
A decoder configured to decode a data stream having a video encoded therein, comprising:\n a memory; and a decoding apparatus communicatively coupled with the memory configured to: extract, from the data stream, first information associated with a coding block of the video, wherein the first information has first and second states, the first state indicates that (1) the coding block is to be reconstructed based on a coding parameter of a first merge candidate coding block and (2) the coding block is to be reconstructed without residual data; based on the first information being in the first state,\n extract, from the data stream, second information associated with the coding block, the second information specifying the first merge candidate coding block, and \n reconstruct the coding block based on the coding parameter of the first merge candidate coding block; \n based on the first information being in the second state,\n extract, from the data stream, third information associated with the coding block, the third information indicating either an intra mode or an inter mode; \n based on the third information being in the intra mode,\n extract, from the data stream, an intra coding parameter associated with the coding block, and \n reconstruct the coding block based on the intra coding parameter; and \n based on the third information being in the inter mode,\n extract, from the data stream, an inter coding parameter associated with the coding block having fourth information indicating a second merge candidate coding block, \n obtain a set of coding parameters associated with the second merge candidate coding block, and \n reconstruct the coding block based on residual data and the set of coding parameters associated with the second merge candidate coding block.
