Abstract
Aspects of the disclosure include methods, apparatuses, and non-transitory computer-readable storage mediums for video encoding/decoding. An apparatus includes processing circuitry that decodes a video bitstream to obtain a reduced-resolution residual block for a current block. The processing circuitry determines that a block level flag is set to a pre-defined value. The pre-defined value indicates that the current block is coded in reduced-resolution coding. Based on the block level flag, the processing circuitry generates a reduced-resolution prediction block for the current block by down-sampling a full-resolution reference block of the current block. The processing circuitry generates a reduced-resolution reconstruction block for the current block based on the reduced-resolution prediction block and the reduced-resolution residual block. The processing circuitry generates a full-resolution reconstruction block for the current block by up-sampling the reduced-resolution reconstruction block.
