Abstract

A method of operation of a video coding system includes: receiving a video bitstream; extracting a video syntax from the video bitstream; extracting a temporal layer from the video bitstream based on the video syntax; and forming a video stream based on the temporal layer for displaying on a device.

Claims (25)

1. A method, comprising:

receiving a video bitstream for a video content;

extracting a video usability information (VUI) syntax from the video bitstream,

wherein the video usability information (VUI) syntax includes a field_seq_flag indicating a video stream that includes a video representing field and is common to all occurrences of a plurality of temporal layers;

extracting at least one temporal layer from the video bitstream based on the extracted video usability information (VUI) syntax; and

decoding the video bitstream based on the extracted at least one temporal layer for generating the video stream for displaying on a device.

2. A decoding apparatus, comprising:

a receive module configured to receive a video bitstream for a video content;

a get syntax module, configured to couple with the receive module, wherein the get syntax module is further configured to:

extract a video usability information (VUI) syntax from the video bitstream,

wherein the video usability information (VUI) syntax includes a field_seq_flag indicating a video stream that includes a video representing field and is common to all

occurrences of a plurality of temporal layers;

a decode module, configured to couple with the get syntax module, wherein the decode module is further configured to extract at least one temporal layer from the video bitstream based on the extracted video usability information (VUI) syntax;

and

a display module, configured to couple with the decode module, wherein the display module is further configured to decode the video bitstream based on the extracted at least one temporal layer to generate the video stream for display.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein the video usability information (VUI) syntax further includes a timing_info_present_flag.

4. The method according to claim 3 , wherein all the video usability information (VUI) syntax related to the timing_info_present_flag is common to all occurrences of the plurality of temporal layers.

5. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

extracting from the video bitstream, a hypothetical reference decoder (HRD) parameter common to all occurrences of the plurality of temporal layers.

6. The method according to claim 1 , further comprising:

extracting from the video bitstream, a hypothetical reference decoder (HRD) parameter for each separate occurrence of the plurality of temporal layers.

7. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the video usability information (VUI) syntax further includes a timing_info_present_flag.

8. The method according to claim 7 , wherein all the video usability information (VUI) syntax related to the timing_info_present_flag is common to all occurrences of the plurality of temporal layers.

9. The method according to claim 2 , wherein the get syntax module is further configured to extract from the video bitstream, a hypothetical reference decoder (HRD) parameter common to all occurrences of the plurality of temporal layers.

10. The method according to claim 2 , the get syntax module is further configured to extract from the video bitstream, a hypothetical reference decoder (HRD) parameter for each separate occurrence of the respective plurality of temporal layers.
