Abstract

Systems, methods and apparatus for video processing are described. The video processing may include video encoding, video decoding or video transcoding. One example method of video processing includes a method of video processing, including performing a conversion between a video region of a video and a bitstream of the video according to a format rule. The format rule specifies that an applicability of a deblocking filter for the video region is determined based on syntax elements at i) a picture parameter set level and ii) a picture level or a slice level.

Claims (58)

1. A method of video processing, comprising:

performing a conversion between a video region of a video and a bitstream of the video according to a format rule, and

wherein the format rule specifies that a constraint on a value of a first syntax element in an adaptation parameter set (APS) is based on a chroma format index and APS identifier information included in a picture header (PH) or a slice header (SH) in response to a picture or a slice referring to the APS, wherein the first syntax element specifies whether chroma-related APS syntax elements are allowed to be present in the APS or not, and wherein the constraint is checked after parsing the APS and the PH or SH;

wherein the format rule specifies that an applicability of a deblocking filter for the video region is determined based on i) a first disabled control syntax element in a picture parameter set and ii) a second disabled control syntax element in the picture header or a third disabled control syntax element in the slice header,

wherein a value of the first disabled control syntax element equal to 0 specifies that the deblocking filter is enabled for slices in pictures referring to the picture parameter set unless overridden for the picture or the slice by information present in the picture header or the slice header,

wherein the value of the first disabled control syntax element equal to 1 specifies that the deblocking filter is disabled for slices in pictures referring to the picture parameter set unless overridden for a picture or a slice by information present in the picture header or the slice header, and

wherein the format rule specifies that whether to include the third disabled control syntax element in the slice header is dependent on (1) the value of the first disabled control syntax element and (2) a value of a fifth syntax element indicating an allowability of a presence of deblocking parameters in the slice header.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein when the chroma format index is equal to 0, a value of the first syntax element of an APS network abstraction layer (NAL) unit having APS parameters type equal to ALF_APS and APS identifier equal to APS identifier information included in the PH or SH is equal to 0,

wherein when the chroma format index is equal to 0, the value of the first syntax element of the APS NAL unit having APS parameters type equal to LMCS_APS and APS identifier equal to APS identifier information included in the PH is equal to 0,

6. The method of claim 5 , wherein the format rule specifies when the second disabled control syntax element is not present, a value of the second disabled control syntax element is inferred to be equal to a certain value indicating the deblocking filter is enabled in the picture when i) the value of the first disabled control syntax element is equal to 1, and ii) the value of the fourth syntax element is equal to 1, and otherwise, the value of the second disabled control syntax element is inferred to be equal to the value of the first disabled control syntax element.
