ABSTRACT:
Techniques and tools for signaling of field type information for interlaced video frames are described. For example, a video decoder receives a code for an interlaced video frame that has two fields. The code represents information that jointly indicates field types for the two fields and an order for the field types. The decoder decodes the code. A video encoder performs corresponding encoding and signaling.
