Systems and techniques are provided for conserving resources when performing motion estimation. An example process can include determining, based on an input image and a reference image, motion vectors identifying motion between the input image and the reference image; determining whether the motion indicated by the motion vectors is below a first threshold; based on a determination that the motion indicated by the motion vectors is below the first threshold, refraining from determining a local motion between the input image and the reference image; determining a transform matrix based on the motion vectors and without using a local motion between the input image and the reference image; and adjusting the input image based on the transform matrix.

Scale image resolution for motion estimation

A device for encoding video data includes a memory configured to store video data, and a video encoder implemented in circuitry and configured to encode a future picture of the video data having a first display order position, the future picture being included in an intra period (IP) of the video data, the IP comprising a plurality of groups of pictures (GOPs), and after encoding the future picture, encode a picture of an ordinal first GOP of the plurality of GOPs using the future picture as a reference picture, each picture of the ordinal first GOP having display order positions earlier than the first display order position. Encoding the future picture in this manner may result in encoding performance improvements with minimal increases in encoding and decoding complexity.

Adaptive GOP structure with future reference frame in random access configuration for video coding

A video coder may determine a motion vector of a non-adjacent block of a current picture of the video data. The non-adjacent block is non-adjacent to a current block of the current picture. Furthermore, the video coder determines, based on the motion vector of the non-adjacent block, a motion vector predictor (MVP) for the current block. The video coder may determine a motion vector of the current block. The video coder may also determine a predictive block based on the motion vector of the current block.

Motion vector prediction

Processing high dynamic range and or wide color gamut video data using a fixed-point implementation. A method of processing video data may include receiving one or more supplemental enhancement information (SEI) messages that contain information specifying how to determine parameters for performing an inverse dynamic range adjustment process, receiving decoded video data, and performing the inverse dynamic range adjustment process on the decoded video data using fixed-point computing in accordance with the information in the one or more SEI messages.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for power-efficient image stabilization. An example method can include collecting measurements from a motion sensor, the measurements being based on movement of an image sensor while capturing frames; calculating parameters for counteracting motions in a frame, wherein first parameters are based on the measurements and second parameters are based on some of the measurements; adjusting, in a first stabilization pass of a dual-pass stabilization process, the first frame according to the second parameters; adjusting, in a second stabilization pass of the dual-pass stabilization process, the first frame according to the first parameters; based on a second frame having less motion than the first frame, enabling for the second frame a single-pass stabilization process for both a frame preview process and video record process; and adjusting, in the single stabilization pass, the second frame according to parameters for counteracting motions in the second frame.

Power-efficient dynamic electronic image stabilization

A method of decoding and encoding video data includes constructing a motion vector candidate list for the current block of video data based on the motion information from the neighboring blocks relative to the current block determined to include motion information, and adaptively ordering the constructed motion vector candidate list for the current block of video data based on at least one weight among a plurality of weights associated with motion information included in each neighboring block determined to include motion information.

Merge candidates for motion vector prediction for video coding

In general, techniques are described for processing high dynamic range (HDR) and wide color gamut (WCG) video data for video coding. A device comprising a memory and a processor may perform the techniques. The memory may store compacted fractional chromaticity coordinate (FCC) formatted video data. The processor may inverse compact the compacted FCC formatted video data using one or more inverse adaptive transfer functions (TFs) to obtain decompacted FCC formatted video data. The processor may next inverse adjust a chromaticity component of the decompacted FCC formatted video data based on a corresponding luminance component of the decompacted FCC formatted video data to obtain inverse adjusted FCC formatted video data. The processor may convert the chromaticity component of the inverse adjusted FCC formatted video data from the FCC format to a color representation format to obtain High Dynamic Range (HDR) and Wide Color Gamut (WCG) video data.

Processing high dynamic range and wide color gamut video data for video coding

This disclosure relates to processing video data, including processing video data that is represented by an HDR/WCG color representation. In accordance with one or more aspects of the present disclosure, one or more syntax structures may be used to signal syntax elements and or other information that allow a video decoder or video postprocessing device to reverse the dynamic range adjustment (DRA) techniques of this disclosure to reconstruct the original or native color representation of the video data. Dynamic range adjustment (DRA) parameters may be applied to video data in accordance with one or more aspects of this disclosure in order to make better use of an HDR/WCG color representation, and may include the use of global offset values, as well as local scale and offset values for partitions of color component values.

Syntax structures for high dynamic range and wide color gamut video coding

A method of decoding video data includes constructing a motion vector candidate list of merge candidates for the current block of video data based on motion information from a number of neighboring blocks relative to the current block, wherein the number of neighboring blocks considered for the motion vector candidate list is based on the size of the current block, and wherein the number of neighboring blocks is greater than 5. In some examples, the method includes deriving a histogram of motion vector information for the neighboring blocks, and constructing the motion vector candidate list based on the derived histogram.

In an example, a method of processing video may include receiving a bitstream including encoded video data and a colour remapping information (CRI) supplemental enhancement information (SEI) message. The CRI SEI message may include information corresponding to one or more colour remapping processes. The method may include decoding the encoded video data to generate decoded video data. The method may include applying a process that does not correspond to the CRI SEI message to the decoded video data before applying at least one of the one or more colour remapping processes to the decoded video data to produce processed decoded video data.
