JVET-K0294 Tencent test sequences, and Class F test set restructure [J. Ye, S. Wenger, X. Li, S. Liu, L. Wu, C. Xie, K. Liu, B. Wang, P. Liu, K. Dong, Y. Kuang, W. Feng (Tencent)]

Four test sequences were presented to JVET for proposed inclusion into coding experiment test sets. All are in 1080p YUV 4:2:0 resolution. Three of the four sequences were captured screen content of eSport/gaming applications and were suggested to be appropriate for the Class F test set. One sequence is part of a music video and was offered for the class B test set. Objective and subjective test results were provided for all sequences. The copyright holder offered the sequences under a copyright license claimed to be suitable for use in standardization projects.

The proponents asserted that the current Class F test set is outdated and does not reflect today’s screen content, both in resolution and frame rate. It was also proposed to replace the current Class F sequences with those of the SCC 4:2:0 TGM test set. The proponents further asserted that eSport/gaming content is currently underrepresented. It was proposed to include one eSport/gaming sequence into the Class F test set, either by adding or by replacing one of the SCC4:2:0 TGM sequences with the new material.

This contribution was discussed in the CTC BoG (see the notes for JVET-K0541).
