Video decoding device and video encoding device
View Patent ↗A video decoding device includes a subpicture decoder(s) configured to decode respective subpictures, and a picture combining unit configured to compose the subpictures decoded into a picture such that the subpictures are allowed to overlap with each other.
1. A video decoding device comprising:
at least one processor; and
a storage device coupled to the at least one processor and storing a program which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to:
decode subpictures of a picture;
determine, based on an enable flag included in a sequence parameter set, whether syntax of the sequence parameter set indicates sizes and positions of the subpictures; and
combine the decoded subpictures into the picture with reference to the syntax when the syntax of the sequence parameter set indicates the sizes and positions of the subpictures.
2. The video decoding device according to claim 1 , wherein the syntax further indicates offsets of the subpictures.
3. A video encoding device comprising:
at least one processor; and
a storage device coupled to the at least one processor and storing a program which, when executed by the at least one processor, causes the at least one processor to:
split a picture into subpictures; and
code each of the subpictures to generate an enable flag included in a sequence parameter set of coded data, the enable flag indicating whether syntax included in the sequence parameter set of coded data indicates sizes and positions of the subpictures.
4. The video decoding device according to claim 1 , wherein the sizes of the subpictures are different from a size of the picture.
5. The video decoding device according to claim 1 , wherein the sizes of the subpictures include widths and heights of the subpictures.
6. The video decoding device according to claim 1 , wherein the positions of the subpictures include positions of pixels at a left end of the subpictures and positions of pixels at a top end of the subpictures.
