Aspects of the disclosure provide a method, an apparatus, and non-transitory computer-readable storage medium for video decoding. The apparatus includes processing circuitry configured to decode prediction information of a current block in a coded bitstream. The prediction information indicates a merge mode with motion vector difference (MMVD) with a template matching (TM) mode and motion vector difference (MVD) information of the current block. The processing circuitry can determine one or more MVD candidates based on the MVD information. The processing circuitry can perform TM to search for a matched MVD between a current template of the current block and a reference template of a reference block of the current block based on the one or more MVD candidates. The processing circuitry can reconstruct the current block based on a motion vector (MV) that is a summation of a motion vector predictor (MVP) and the matched MVD.

Techniques for implementing video processing techniques are described. In one example implementation, a method of video processing includes determining, for a conversion between a current block of a video coded using a combined inter and intra prediction (CIIP) coding technique and a bitstream representation of the video, an intra-prediction mode of the current block independently from an intra-prediction mode of a neighboring block. The CIIP coding technique uses an intermedia inter prediction value and an intermedia intra prediction value to derive a final prediction value of the current block. The method also includes performing the conversion based on the determining.
