A method of video encoding includes determining whether a plurality of constraint flags of a constraint information group are to be signaled for a subset of coding blocks, and signaling a gate flag indicating whether the plurality of constraint flags of the constraint information group are signaled. The gate flag is signaled in constraint information in a syntax structure of a coded video bitstream. In accordance with the signaled gate flag indicating that the plurality of constraint flags of the constraint information group are signaled, the method further includes signaling the plurality of constraint flags of the constraint information group in the constraint information in the syntax structure of the coded video bitstream. In accordance with the plurality of constraint flags being signaled in the constraint information, the method further includes encoding the subset of coding blocks based on the plurality of constraint flags.

Constraint flags in general constraints information

Aspects of the disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for video data processing. In some examples, an apparatus for video data processing includes processing circuitry. For example, the processing circuitry determines a first syntax element for coding control in a first scope of coded video data in a bitstream. The first syntax element is associated with a coding tool of a slice based Rice coding for a residual coding in a transform skip mode. The coding tool provides a Rice parameter at a slice level for the residual coding in the transform skip mode. In response to the first syntax element being a first value indicative of disabling of the coding tool in the first scope, the processing circuitry decodes the first scope of coded video data that includes one or more second scopes of coded video data without invoking the coding tool.

Aspects of the disclosure provide methods and apparatuses for video data processing. In some examples, an apparatus for video data processing includes processing circuitry.
