The disclosure describes examples for determining samples to use for DC intra mode prediction, such as where the samples are in a row or column that is not immediately above or immediately left of the current block. The samples may be aligned with the current block such that a last sample in the samples in a row above the current block is in same column as last column of the current block and such that a last sample in the samples in a column left of the current block is in the same row as the last row of the current block.
