Abstract

Implementations are provided that relate, for example, to view tiling in video encoding and decoding. A particular method includes accessing a video picture that includes multiple pictures combined into a single picture ( 826 ), accessing information indicating how the multiple pictures in the accessed video picture are combined ( 806, 808, 822 ), decoding the video picture to provide a decoded representation of at least one of the multiple pictures ( 824, 826 ), and providing the accessed information and the decoded video picture as output ( 824, 826 ). Some other implementations format or process the information that indicates how multiple pictures included in a single video picture are combined into the single video picture, and format or process an encoded representation of the combined multiple pictures.

Claims (6)

1. A non-transitory processor readable medium having stored thereon an encoded bitstream, the encoded bitstream comprising:

an encoded picture section including an encoding of a video picture, the video picture including a first picture of a first view of a multi-view video and a second picture of a second view of the multi-view video arranged into the video picture in which a common object appears shifted from one view to the other; and

a signaling section including an encoding of an indication that indicates whether at least one of the first picture and the second picture is individually flipped, the indication allowing decoding of the encoded video picture into decoded versions of the first picture and the second picture.

2. The processor readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the first picture is arranged alongside the second picture in the video picture.

3. The processor readable medium of claim 1 , wherein the first picture is arranged above the second picture in the video picture.

4. The processor readable medium of claim 1 , wherein pixels of the first and second pictures are alternately interlaced.
