Adaptive switching of color spaces, color sampling rates and/or bit depths

摘要

A method or device in adaptive encoding and decoding for units of a video sequence can improve coding efficiency. A method or device includes encoding/decoding that includes adaptive switching of color spaces between units within a video sequence. A method or device includes encoding/decoding that includes adaptive switching of color sampling rates between units within a video sequence. Still a method or device includes encoding/decoding that includes adaptive switching of bit depths between units within a video sequence.
