Abstract: A luma prediction block of a luma block is obtained. An initial chroma prediction block of a chroma block corresponding to the luma block is obtained. Filter coefficients are derived based on the luma prediction block and the initial chroma prediction block. A luma blending component is obtained by applying the filter coefficients to a reconstructed luma block that is obtained by adding the luma prediction block to a luma residual block. A final chroma prediction block is obtained by blending, based on a blending mode, the luma blending component with the initial chroma prediction block. The blending is performed by combining, pixel-location wise, the luma blending component and the initial chroma prediction block using a weighted average using blending weights specified by the blending mode. The chroma block is reconstructed by adding the final chroma prediction block to a chroma residual block.
