Systems, methods, and devices for coding multilayer video data are disclosed that may include encoding, decoding, transmitting, or receiving multilayer video data. The systems, methods, and devices may receive or transmit a non-entropy coded representation format within a video parameter set (VPS). The systems, methods, and devices may code (encode or decode) video data based on the non-entropy coded representation format within the VPS, wherein the representation format includes one or more of chroma format, whether different color planes are separately coded, picture width, picture height, luma bit depth, and chroma bit depth.
