METHOD AND DEVICE FOR DECODING MULTI-LAYER VIDEO DATA BY DETERMINING THE CAPABILITY OF THE DECODER BASED ON PROFILE, TIER AND LEVEL ASSOCIATED WITH PARTITION CONTAINING ONE OR MORE LAYERS.

摘要

A multi-layer video decoder is configured to determine, based on a list of triplet entries, whether the multi-layer video decoder is capable of decoding a bitstream that comprises an encoded representation of the multi-layer video data. The number of triplet entries in the list is equal to a number of single-layer decoders in the multi-layer video decoder. Each respective triplet entry in the list of triplet entries indicates a profile, a tier, and a level for a respective single-layer decoder in the multi-layer video decoder. The multi-layer video decoder is configured such that, based on the multi-layer video decoder being capable of decoding the bitstream, the multi-layer video decoder decodes the bitstream.
