SCANNING ORDERS FOR NON-TRANSFORM CODING

Abstract:

Non-transform blocks of video content may be coded by selectively changing a scanning order. In some implementations, an encoder or decoder may perform a scanning process on a block according to a scanning order. When the block has not been transformed, the encoder or decoder may selectively change the scanning order to a different order. For example, if the block is associated with a particular type of prediction, the scanning order may be changed to a different order. In another example, if the non-transform block has a size that is smaller than a predetermined size, the scanning order may be changed to a different order.
