42nd Meeting: Santa Eulària, ES, April 2026
HEVC additional profiles (Draft 1)
Authors: Ye-Kui Wang B. Bross Gary J. Sullivan Alexis Tourapis Jens-Rainer Ohm
Abstract
This document contains the draft text for changes to the High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) standard (Rec. ITU T H.265 ISO/IEC 23008 2). The changes include the support of two new profiles, namely the Multiview Main 4:4:4 10 and 12 profiles.
Meeting Notes
JVET-AP1006 HEVC additional profiles (Draft 1) [Y.-K. Wang, B. Bross, G. J. Sullivan, A. Tourapis] (2026-05-29)

Primary editor: A. Tourapis.

New 4:4:4 10/12 profiles from JVET-AP0242

Remains valid – not updated: JCTVC-P1006 Common test conditions and software reference configurations for HEVC range extensions [D. Flynn, C. Rosewarne, K. Sharman (editors)] [WG 11 M 32658]

May require merging with JVET-T2013. JCTVC-P1006 only defines 10-bit sequences for the cases on 4:4:4 and 4:2:2 chroma sampling, and 16-bit sequences for higher bit depth, no 12 bit cases. All sequences specified in this document should be already available in the JVET content server. It is also noted that JVET-AA1100 could be removed once such a merge is done.

Remains valid – not updated: JCTVC-V1007 SHVC Test Model 11 (SHM 11) Introduction and Encoder Description [G. Barroux, J. Boyce, J. Chen, M. M. Hannuksela, Y. Ye] [WG 11 N 15778]
