A method of video decoding including receiving a syntax element from a bitstream of a coded video associated with a current coding block that is partitioned into a first part and a second part along a partition edge for prediction in a geometric partitioning mode, and determining a weight index at a sample position of the current coding block. A stored motion vector type for a first motion storage unit in a motion field of the current coding block is determined based on a motion index of the first motion storage unit. The weight index at the sample position of the current coding block is used as the motion index of the first motion storage unit. The motion field of the current coding block can be stored based on the stored motion vector type determined for the first motion storage unit in the motion field of the current coding block.

A method of coding is described. The method can include obtaining a bitstream for a current picture, obtaining a value of a first indicator for the current picture according to the bitstream indicating a slice type, and obtaining a value of a second indicator for the current picture according to the bitstream indicating whether a weighted prediction parameter is present in a picture header or slice header of the bitstream. The method can also include parsing a value of the weighted prediction parameter for a current block of a current slice of the current picture from the bitstream. Furthermore, the method can include predicting the current block according to the value of the weighted prediction parameter.

A first quantization value for encoding at least one frame of a content item may be determined based at least on a predetermined bitrate and a point in the content item associated with a scene change. A first duration associated with a first portion of the content item may be determined. The first portion of the content item may comprise the at least one frame and may be associated with the first quantization value. A second quantization value for encoding at least another frame of the content item may be determined based at least on the predetermined bitrate. A second duration associated with a second portion of the content item may be determined. The second portion of the content item may comprise the at least another frame and may be associated with the second quantization value.

A picture with multiple slices is encoded by generating a coded slice representation for each of the slices. A slice flag is set to a first value for the first slice in the picture and corresponding slice flags of the remaining slices are set to a second defined value. A respective slice address is generated for each remaining slice to enable identification of the slice start position within the picture for the slice. A coded picture representation of the picture comprises the coded slice representations, the slice addresses and the slice flags. The slice flags enable differentiation between slices for which slice addresses are required and the slice per picture for which no slice address is needed to identify its slice start position.

An improved method for coding video is provided that includes Virtual Reality (VR) sequences that enables more efficient encoding by organizing the VR sequence as a single 2D block structure. In the method, reference picture and subpicture lists are created and extended to account for coding of the VR sequence. To further improve coding efficiency, reference indexing can be provided for the temporal and spatial difference between a current VR picture block and the reference pictures and subpictures for the VR sequence. Further, because the reference subpictures for the VR sequence may not have the proper orientation once the VR sequence subpictures are organized into the VR sequence, reorientation of the reference subpictures is made so that the reference subpicture orientations match the current VR subpicture orientations.
