Abstract
An apparatus configured to filter video information according to certain aspects includes a memory unit and a processor in communication with the memory unit. The memory unit stores video information comprising at least two adjacent video blocks, each video block comprising a plurality of video samples, and each video sample having a bit depth. The processor determines a filtered video sample based at least in part on a video sample and an adjustment value. The processor determines the adjustment value at least in part from an input with a limited bit depth. The input is determined from a set of one or more video samples, and its bit depth is limited such that it is less than the bit depth of the one or more video samples.
