Abstract

The present invention discloses a video decoding method performed by a video decoding device. The video decoding method according to an embodiment may include the steps of: obtaining NAL unit type information indicating a type of a current network abstraction layer (NAL) unit from a bitstream; and decoding, when the NAL unit type information indicates that the NAL unit type of the current NAL unit is an encoded data for an slice, the slice based on whether a mixed NAL unit type is applied to a current picture.

Claims (13)

1. A video decoding method performed by a video decoding device, the method comprising:

receiving a bitstream;

obtaining, from the bitstream, a first flag indicating whether a current picture includes subpictures having different network abstraction layer (NAL) unit types; and

obtaining, from the bitstream, second flags, each of the second flags is associated with a respective one of the subpictures, wherein

each of the second flags indicates whether an associated subpicture is treated as a picture in a decoding process,

when the first flag indicates that the current picture includes subpictures having different NAL unit types, second flags for all subpictures having a NAL unit type equal to RASL (Random Access Skipped Leading) among the subpictures are restricted to have a first value regardless of whether each subpicture whose NAL unit type is equal to RASL is referenced, and

the first value indicates that the associated subpicture is treated as a picture in a decoding process.

2. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, in a decoding process excluding in-loop filtering, a subpicture whose second flag is equal to the first value is treated as a picture and decoded to be independent from other subpictures.

3. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, when a first NAL unit of the picture has the NAL unit type equal to IDR or CRA, a second NAL unit of the picture is restricted to have the NAL unit type excluding RASL and RADL.

4. The method according to claim 3 , the second NAL unit has the NAL unit type equal to one of IDR and CRA, and the NAL unit type of the second NAL unit is different from the NAL unit type of the first NAL unit.

5. The method according to claim 3 , the second NAL unit has the NAL unit type equal to TRAIL.

6. The method according to claim 1 , wherein, when the picture includes a subpicture having a NAL unit type equal to RASL and another subpicture having a NAL unit type equal to RADL (Random Access Decodable Leading), the picture is treated as a RASL picture in a decoding process.

7. The method according to claim 6 , wherein the RASL picture is not output.
