Systems, methods, and instrumentalities may be configured for
coding tree unit (CTU) grid shifting. An exemplary
video decoding device may receive a picture encoded based on a
ratio value. The device may receive a
ratio value corresponding to the picture. The device may decode the picture based on the
ratio value. The ratio value may correspond to a picture corresponding to a
maximum gain. Decoding the picture based on the ratio value may include decoding the picture based on the
maximum gain.
