Systems and methods for signaling subpicture information in video coding
This disclosure relates to video coding and more particularly to techniques for signaling subpicture information for coded video. In one example, a method of decoding video data comprises: receiving a general constraint information syntax elements; parsing a first syntax element from the general constraint information syntax elements specifying whether a constraint is imposed on the number of slices that being contained in each subpicture; receiving a picture parameter set syntax elements; and parsing a second syntax element from the picture parameter set syntax elements specifying that each subpicture contains one and only one slice, wherein a value of the second syntax element is constrained according to the first syntax element parsed from the general constraint information syntax elements.
1. A method of decoding video data, the method comprising:
receiving a sequence parameter set;
parsing a first flag, in the sequence parameter set, wherein the first flag has a first value specifying that subpicture identifiers are explicitly signaled and a second value specifying that the subpicture identifiers are not explicitly signaled;
in a case that the first flag specifies that the subpicture identifiers are explicitly signaled, parsing a second flag, in the sequence parameter set, wherein the second flag has a first value specifying that the subpicture identifiers are signaled in the sequence parameter set and a second value specifying that the subpicture identifiers are not signaled in the sequence parameter set; and
in a case that the second flag specifies that the subpicture identifiers are signaled in the sequence parameter set, parsing a syntax element, in the sequence parameter set, specifying a subpicture identifier for each respective subpicture.
2. A device comprising one or more processors configured to:
receive a sequence parameter set;
parse a first flag, in the sequence parameter set, wherein the first flag has a first value specifying that subpicture identifiers are explicitly signaled and a second value specifying that the subpicture identifiers are not explicitly signaled;
in a case that the first flag specifies that the subpicture identifiers are explicitly signaled, parsing a second flag, in the sequence parameter set, wherein the second flag has a first value specifying that the subpicture identifiers are signaled in the sequence parameter set and a second value specifying that the subpicture identifiers are not signaled in the sequence parameter set; and
in a case that the second flag specifies that the subpicture identifiers are signaled in the sequence parameter set, parse a syntax element, in the sequence parameter set, specifying a subpicture identifier for each respective subpicture.
3. The device of claim 2 , wherein the device is a video decoder.
