Draft ISO/IEC 23008-2 : 201x (E)
Draft Rec. ITU-T H.HEVC (201x E) iii
o Modified syntax and semantics of progressive refinement segment start SEI message (w/ later cleanup).
o For all five SEI messages with this type of persistence, convert the "repetition period" into a persistence
flag, such that 0 and 1 are supported and >1 is not.
o Copied syntax and semantics of the post-filter hint SEI message from the AVC spec, and clarified the
persistency scope of the post-filter hint SEI message to be just the picture that contains the SEI message.
o Picture timing SEI, condition the presence of some syntax elements on CpbDpbDelaysPresentFlag.
Integrated bounding redundant SEI messages (JCTVC-L0325).
Integrated indication of parameter sets properties in active parameter sets SEI (JCTVC-L0047).
Fixed matrix_coefficients semantics.
Removed frame_packing_arrangement_type = 6 according to the decision noted under JCTVC-L0454.
Integrated the following decisions noted under JCTVC-L0046 (w/ later cleanup):
o Renamed progressive_source_idc to source_scan_type
o In profile/tier/level syntax structure (general_ and sub_layer_ prefixed), specify progressive_source_flag
and interlaced_source_flag (these two go first among the four), as follows:
both zero indicates that the source scan type is unknown or unspecified
both equal to 1 indicates that the source type is indicated at picture level in source_scan_type
o These two bits are followed by the following two bits (general_ and sub_layer_ prefixed):
non_packed_constraint_flag equal to 1 specifies that FPA SEI, if present, has frame_packing_type
equal to 6. non_packed_constraint_flag equal to 0 indicates that this constraint is not applied.
frame_only_constraint_flag equal to 1 specifies that field_seq_flag is equal to 0.
frame_only_constraint_flag equal to 0 indicates that field_seq_flag may or may not be equal to 0.
Integrated the following decisions noted under JCTVC-L0219 (w/ later cleanup): In bumping HRD operation, the
bumping process should be invoked until there are no detected constraint violations rather than just until there is an
empty frame buffer, and the checked conditions should checking immediately after decoding and should include
checking both maximum picture reordering and maximum picture latency.
Copied syntax and semantics of the filler payload SEI message, the user data registered by Rec. ITU-T T.35 SEI
message, the user data unregistered SEI message, the full-frame snapshot SEI message, and the progressive
refinement segment end SEI message from the AVC spec.
Fixed the following:
o Dropped the extension flag in the syntaxes of the post-filter hint SEI message and the display orientation
SEI message, and fixed the syntax of the post-filter hint SEI message related to chroma_format_idc equal
to 0.
o Updated the list of normative references.
Fixed editorial issues from NB comments JP15, JP27 and JP23 (#875).
Fixed several issues (#797, #914, #971, #975, #978).
Moved the bumping process one level up.
Draft 9 of High efficiency video coding.
Ed. Notes (D9):
General editorial cleanup and consistency improvements (including some section restructuring)
Cleanup and correction of colour space specification aspects (e.g. w.r.t. UHDTV)
Improvement of Annex A examples for level limits on picture sizes and frame rates
Correction of missing condition on LongTermRefPic in spatial MVP derivation relative to action recorded for
JCTVC-J0071 and JCTVC-J0121 (#647)
Improved definition of "inter prediction" (#342)
Correcting usage of "disable_deblocking_filter_flag" (#654)
Corrected use of Log2CtbSize versus Log2CtbSizeY in Annex A (#655)
Corrected use of I_PCM mode (#634)
Removed apparently-unnecessary checks for "&& NumPocTotalCurr > 1" in ref_pic_list_modification( ) syntax, as
it does not seem to make sense for the encoder to set ref_pic_list_modification_flag_lX to 1 when
NumPocTotalCurr is equal to 1
Modifying cbf_cb[ x0 ][ y0 ][ trafoDepth ] and cbf_cr[ x0 ][ y0 ][ trafoDepth ] semantics in regard to luma versus
chroma (TB versus TU) location specification (Dzung Hoang JCT-VC experts reflector email 3 Aug 2012)
