Abstract
An encoder includes circuitry and memory coupled to the circuitry. Given id indicating a lower temporal sublayer other than a highest temporal sublayer in temporal sublayers, the circuitry calculates a DPB output time [id] for a picture in the lower temporal sublayer. In doing so, the circuitry of the encoder subtracts a DPB output delta [id] provided for each of the temporal sublayers from a DPB output delay shared between the temporal sublayers, and given maxid indicating the highest temporal sublayer, calculates the DPB output delta [id] by subtracting a CPB removal delay [maxid] and an offset [id] from a CPB removal delay [id]. Next, the circuitry stores the offset [id] in a bitstream.
