US Patent 9473779 Parallel processing for video coding

In one example, a device for coding video data includes a video coder configured to code data indicating whether tile boundaries of different layers of video data are aligned and whether inter-layer prediction is allowed along or across tile boundaries of enhancement layer blocks, code an enhancement layer block in an enhancement layer tile of the video data without using inter-layer prediction from a collocated base layer block for which inter-layer filtering or reference layer filtering across tile boundaries in a reference layer picture in an access unit including both the enhancement layer tile and the base layer block is enabled, and code the collocated base layer block.
