METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR ENCODING VIDEO BASED ON SCANNING ORDER OF HIERARCHICAL ENCODING UNITS, AND METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR DECODING VIDEO BASED ON SCANNING ORDER OF HIERARCHICAL ENCODING UNITS Russian patent published in 2014 - IPC H04N19/122 

FIELD: physics, video.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to video encoding and decoding. The video decoding method includes receiving and parsing a bit stream of an encoded video and decoding encoded image data for a maximum size of a coding unit based on information on coding depth and coding mode for the maximum coding unit based on a raster scanning order for the maximum coding unit and a zigzag scanning order for coding units of the maximum depth coding unit.

EFFECT: high efficiency of encoding or decoding high-resolution or high-quality video content.
