Abstract

According to the disclosure of the present document, an ID value of an LMCS APS may be within a predetermined range. Thus, an LMCS procedure can be efficiently performed, and the complexity of LMCS is reduced. Since the performance of LMCS is improved, efficiency of video/image coding may increase.
