Text bug on reference index derivation for temporal merging candidate

Reported by: huiyong Owned by: bbross
Priority: minor Milestone: D7
Component: Text Version: D6 (H1003) dI/dJ/dK
Keywords: Cc: bbross, wjhan, jct-vc@…

Description

In "8.5.2.1.1 Derivation process for luma motion vectors for merge mode", the reference index for temporal merging candidate is derived as follows:

If the following conditions are true, refIdxLX is set equal to refIdxLX[ xP − 1, yP + nPSH − 1 ].
    –	the prediction unit covering luma location ( xP − 1, yP + nPSH − 1 ) is available  
    –	the PartIdx is equal to 0
    –	PredMode is not MODE_INTRA
    –	(xP >> (log2_parallel_merge_level_minus2 + 2)) ! = 
((xP − 1) >> (log2_parallel_merge_level_minus2 + 2))	| |
(yP >> (log2_parallel_merge_level_minus2 + 2)) ! = 
((yP + nPSH − 1) >> (log2_parallel_merge_level_minus2 + 2)

Otherwise, refIdxLX is set equal to 0.

When the singleMCLFlag is equal to 1, however, this may leads to the second PU of a 8x8 CU use a different reference index than the first PU of the same CU, which is incorrect.

The suggested fix is to modify the second condition of the first "If" statement as:

    –	the PartIdx is equal to 0 or the singleMCLFlag is equal to 1 

Note that the HM6.1 software already operates as suggested. Thus we don’t need to modify the software. For more detail, please check the getInterMergeCandidates() function, which is called with uiPUIdx==0 whenever the singleMCLFlag condition is true.

Replying to huiyong:
Issue resolved. The reported mismatch will no more exist due to the adoption of JCTVC-I0116, which fixes TMVP refIdx = 0 and hence removes the condition itself where the mismatch occured.

In "8.5.2.1.1 Derivation process for luma motion vectors for merge mode", the reference index for temporal merging candidate is derived as follows:

If the following conditions are true, refIdxLX is set equal to refIdxLX[ xP − 1, yP + nPSH − 1 ].
