A method of decoding video data includes determining, by one or more processors implemented in circuitry, a picture size of a picture. The picture size applies a picture size restriction to set a width of the picture and a height of the picture to each be a respective multiple of a maximum of 8 and a minimum coding unit size for the picture. The method further includes determining, by the one or more processors, a partition of the picture into a plurality of blocks and generating, by the one or more processors, a prediction block for a block of the plurality of blocks. The method further includes decoding, by the one or more processors, a residual block for the block and combining, by the one or more processors, the prediction block and the residual block to decode the block.
