FIELD: physics.
SUBSTANCE: method includes a step of coding one or more blocks of video data representative of texture information of at least a portion of a frame of the video data. The method further includes processing a texture slice for a texture view component of a current view associated with an access unit, the texture slice comprising the coded one or more blocks and a texture slice header comprising a set of syntax elements representative of characteristics of the texture slice; forming or receiving the texture slice when performing texture slicing; coding depth information representative of depth values for at least the portion of the frame; and processing a depth slice for a depth view component of the current view corresponding to the texture view component of the current view.
EFFECT: high efficiency of encoding or decoding of video content with high resolution or high quality using information indicating whether texture information of the coding unit has been encoded, while taking into account the depth slice.
