Method and apparatus for video coding
An apparatus includes processing circuitry configured to decode coding information of a current block from a coded video bitstream. The coding information can indicate that a first prediction mode of the current block is one of a plurality screen content coding (SCC) tools. The processing circuitry can determine whether at least one loop filter associated with the current block is disabled based on at least one of the first prediction mode of the current block and a first quantization parameter (QP) of the current block. In response to the at least one loop filter being determined as disabled, the processing circuitry can reconstruct the current block without the at least one loop filter.
