US Patent 9451254 Disabling intra prediction filtering

A video decoder may adaptively disable, based on a syntax element, one or more filters used for intra-prediction. In addition, the video decoder may perform intra-prediction to generate prediction data for a current block of a current video slice. Furthermore, a video encoder may adaptively disable one or more filters used for intra-prediction. Furthermore, the video encoder may signal a syntax element that controls the one or more filters. In addition, the video encoder may perform intra prediction to generate prediction data for a current video block the video data.
