Missing pocCRA update causes decoder assertion failure

Description

While testing HM-9.1 we discovered that the HM decoder encounters an assertion failure at line 600 in the TComSlice.cpp. The bitstream is valid however currently the value of variable pocCRA is not updated at the decoder when an IDR NALU type is encountered in the bitstream. The attached fix proposes a change that updates pocCRA when an IDR or IDR_N_LP NALU type is encountered.

Patch to update pocCRA for IDR

comment:2 Changed 12 years ago by ksuehring

Sounds like a bad name for something that is not the POC of a CRA access unit.

It would be helpful to have a corresponding bitstream to reproduce the error

Attached is an example bitstream str.bin. It was created by concatenating a random access main bitstream with 50 frames and a low delay B main bitstream with 50 frames. The first bitstream has a pocCRA value of 32 which is never changed at the start of the second bitstreams IDR picture. As a result when within the second bitstream when POC 33 references pictures with POC lower than 32 it causes an assertion failure at the decoder. The proposed patch updates pocCRA when an IDR NALU type is encountered in the bitstream.

Thank you for the stream. Can you clarify which version of HM was used to generate it?

Apologies, it seems the earlier uploaded example bitstream was generated using an experimental version of the source (HM-9.1 with bug fixes 712, 827). I have regenerated the bitstream using HM-9.1 source and uploaded it "str_hm_91_pocCRA_assertion_example.bin".
