Abstract

Devices, systems and methods for deriving intra prediction samples when the intra prediction mode for a coding block is the planar mode are described. In an aspect, a method for video coding includes selecting a first set of reference samples that are reconstructed neighboring samples of a current block, and determining a prediction value for a prediction sample of the current block by interpolating at least one of the first set and a second set of reference samples, where a reference sample of the second set of reference samples is based on a weighted sum of a first sample and a second sample from the first set of reference samples, and where the reference sample is aligned horizontally with the first sample, aligned vertically with the second sample, and positioned on an opposite side of the prediction sample with respect to either the first or the second sample.
