Abstract

In one embodiment, a method determines a pulse code modulation (PCM) flag that indicates whether a PCM mode can be used to encode or decode a portion of video. A single conditional statement is evaluated once to determine if the PCM flag indicates the PCM mode is enabled. Based on the evaluating of the single conditional statement, when the PCM flag indicates the PCM mode is enabled, the method encodes or decodes a first PCM parameter, a second PCM parameter, a third PCM parameter, a fourth PCM parameter, and a fifth PCM parameter. The first PCM parameter, the second PCM parameter, the third PCM parameter, the fourth PCM parameter, and the fifth PCM parameter are encoded or decoded consecutively without any bits or syntax between them in or from an encoded bitstream associated with the portion of video.
