Cross-component adaptive loop filter in video coding

Abstract:

An example device for decoding video data includes one or more processors implemented in circuitry and configured to: decode a coding tree unit (CTU) of video data, the CTU including a luminance (luma) block and a chrominance (chroma) block, to produce a decoded luma block and a decoded chroma block; determine that a chroma sample of the decoded chroma block is on a first side of an adaptive loop filter (ALF) virtual boundary and that a co-located luma sample of the decoded luma block is on a second side of the ALF virtual boundary, the co-located luma sample being co-located with the chroma sample, the first side being different than the second side; and in response to determining that the chroma sample is on the first side and the luma sample is on the second side, disable cross-component adaptive loop filtering (CC-ALF) for the chroma sample.
