Adaptive loop filter set index signaling

Abstract:

Examples for performing adaptive loop filtering in video coding are described. A video decoder may determine that a number of parameter sets, which each include one or more adaptive filters for adaptive loop filtering, that a current coding structure of the video data refers to for adaptive loop filtering is equal to zero. Based on the number of the parameter sets that the current coding structure refers to for adaptive loop filtering being equal to zero, the video decoder may determine which fixed filter from a set of fixed filters to use for adaptive loop filtering without receiving a syntax element that indicates whether one of the set of fixed filters is to be used for adaptive loop filtering. The video decoder may perform adaptive loop filtering on the current block based on the fixed filter from the set of fixed filters.
