Side information signaling for inter prediction with geometric partitioning
A method for processing a video includes performing a determination, by a processor, that a first video block is partitioned to include a first prediction portion that is non-rectangular and non-square; adding a first motion vector (MV) prediction candidate associated with the first prediction portion to a motion candidate list associated with the first video block, wherein the first MV prediction candidate is derived from a sub-block MV prediction candidate; and performing further processing of the first video block using the motion candidate list.
