Abstract
Methods and apparatus of coding a video sequence, wherein pictures from the video sequence contain one or more discontinuous edges are disclosed. The loop filtering process associated with the loop filter is then applied to the current reconstructed pixel to generate a filtered reconstructed pixel, where if the loop filtering process is across a virtual boundary of the current picture, one or more alternative reference pixels are used to replace unexpected reference pixels located in a different side of the virtual boundary from the current reconstructed pixel, and said one or more alternative reference pixels are generated from second reconstructed pixels in a same side of the virtual boundary as the current reconstructed pixel. According to another method, reference pixels are derived from spherical neighbouring reference pixels for the loop filtering process.
