Abstract
Coding circuitry may implement an indexed set of color values that stores color values for a neighbor pixel group. The coding circuitry may obtain a current pixel group for coding. The coding circuitry may code the current pixel group using the indexed set of color values when an indication that there is a compression advantage to coding using the indexed set of color values is present within an input stream. When the indication is not present, the coding circuitry may code the current pixel group using another coding technique.
