FILTERING PROCESS FOR VIDEO CODING

Abstract:

An example device for filtering decoded video data includes a memory configured to store video data; and one or more processors implemented in circuitry and configured to: decode a block of video data to form a decoded block; apply a filter to the decoded block to form a filtered block; multiply samples of the filtered block by a scaling factor to form a refined filtered block; and combine samples of the refined filtered block with corresponding samples of the decoded block. The one or more processors may further encode the block prior to decoding the block. The one or more processors may encode or decode a value of a syntax element representing the scaling factor, e.g., in a picture header of a picture including the block.
