Reception-side processing performed in a case where transmission of standard dynamic range video data and transmission of high dynamic range video data coexist in a time sequence is simplified.

SDR transmission video data is converted into SDR transmission video data through dynamic range conversion. The SDR transmission video data is the one obtained by performing, on SDR video data, photoelectric conversion in accordance with an SDR photoelectric conversion characteristic. In this case, the conversion is performed on the basis of conversion information for converting a value of conversion data in accordance with the SDR photoelectric conversion characteristic into a value of conversion data in accordance with an HDR photoelectric conversion characteristic. A video stream is obtained by performing encoding processing on HDR transmission video data. A container having a predetermined format and including this video stream is transmitted.

A method, computer program, and computer system is encoding or decoding video data. Video data may include a syntax element indicating a quantization index, wherein a range of the quantization index is extended by an offset value. The syntax element may be parsed to determine the quantization index, a quantization step size may be obtained from a lookup table based on the quantization index and the offset value; and the video data may be encoded or decoded based on the quantization step size.

Disclosed are a method for encoding a video signal and a device therefor. Specifically, a method for decoding an image based on an inter prediction mode comprises: generating a merging candidate list by using a spatial merge candidate and a temporal merge candidate of a current block; obtaining a merge index indicating a certain merge candidate in the merging candidate list; and generating a prediction block of the current block by using motion information of the certain merge candidate, wherein the generating of the merging candidate list may include adding a first merge candidate indicating a collocated block specified by motion information of the spatial merge candidate to the merging candidate list if a reference picture of the spatial merge candidate is same as a predetermined picture.
