Abstract

A video decoding method performed by a video decoding device according to the present document comprises the steps of: obtaining general constraint information from a bitstream; parsing a flag from the bitstream indicating whether information regarding constraints observed by sets of output layers exists within the general constraint information; parsing information regarding the constraints from the general constraint information based on the flag; and decoding a current picture based on the information regarding the constraints, wherein the general constraint information includes count information and alignment information regarding the constraints, and the alignment information within the general constraint information may exist after the count information.

Description

Method and apparatus for processing high-level syntax in an image/video coding system The present technology relates to a method and apparatus for processing high-level syntax when encoding/decoding image/video information in an image/video coding system. Recently, demand for high-resolution, high-quality video, such as Ultra High Definition (UHD) video, 4K or 8K or higher, is increasing across various fields. As video data becomes higher resolution and higher quality, the amount of information or bits transmitted increases relative to existing video data; therefore, when transmitting video data using media such as existing wired or wireless broadband lines or storing video data using existing storage media, transmission and storage costs increase. In addition, interest in and demand for immersive media such as VR (virtual reality), AR (artificial reality) content, and holograms have recently been increasing, and the broadcasting of video content with characteristics different from reality, such as game footage, is on the rise. Accordingly, high-efficiency image/video compression technology is required to effectively compress, transmit, store, and play back high-resolution, high-quality image/video information having various characteristics as described above.

As the disclosure of this document is subject to various modifications and may have various embodiments, specific embodiments are illustrated in the drawings and described in detail. The terms used in this document are used merely to describe specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the technical scope of the methods presented in this document. Unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular expression includes the expression "at least one." Terms such as "comprising" or "having" in this document are intended to specify the existence of the features, numbers, steps, actions, components, parts, or combinations thereof described in the document, and should be understood as not precluding the existence or addition of one or more other features, numbers, steps, actions, components, parts, or combinations thereof. Meanwhile, each component in the drawings described in this document is depicted independently for the convenience of describing different characteristic functions and does not imply that each component is implemented in separate hardware or separate software. For example, two or more components may be combined to form a single component, or a single component may be divided into multiple components. Embodiments in which each component is integrated and/or separated are also included within the scope of this document, provided that they do not deviate from the essence of the method disclosed in this document. In this document, "/" and "," are interpreted as "and/or." For example, "A/B" is interpreted as "A and/or B," and "A, B" is interpreted as "A and/or B." Additionally, "A/B/C" means "at least one of A, B and/or C." Furthermore, "A, B, C" also means "at least one of A, B and/or C." Additionally, in this document, "or" is interpreted as "and/or." For example, "A or B" may mean 1) "A" only, 2) "B" only, or 3) "A and B." Alternatively, "or" in this document may mean "additionally or alternatively." Additionally, parentheses used in this document may mean "for example." Specifically, where indicated as "prediction (intra-prediction)," "intra-prediction" may be proposed as an example of "prediction." In other words, "prediction" in this document is not limited to "intra-prediction," and "intra-prediction" may be proposed as an example of "prediction." Also, even when indicated as "prediction (i.e., intra-prediction)," "intra-prediction" may be proposed as an example of "prediction." Technical features desc
