Patent attributes
In general, the disclosure describes techniques related to block vector coding for Intra Block Copy and Inter modes. In one example, the disclosure is directed to a video coding device comprising a memory configured to store video data and one or more processors. The video coding device is configured to determine a reference picture used for coding the current video block and determine a picture order count (POC) value for the reference picture. In response to the POC value for the reference picture being equal to a POC value for a current picture that includes the current video block, the video coding device sets a value of a syntax element to indicate that a reference picture list includes the current picture. Otherwise, the video coding device sets the value of the syntax element to indicate that the reference picture list does not include the current picture.
