1. A computer-implemented method of view generation based on a video coding scheme, the method comprising: receiving a first bitstream encoded based on the video coding scheme, wherein the first bitstream includes video, one or more quantized warp map offsets, and a first message of a predefined message type specified by the video coding scheme, wherein the first message contains a plurality of syntax elements including a first syntax element and a second syntax element; interpreting, based on the first syntax element included in the first message and by operation of one or more computer processors, depth samples decoded from the first bitstream, as a first predefined depth format comprising quantized warp map offsets; generating one or more warp maps based on one or more quantized warp map offsets interpreted from the first bitstream, and based further on at least the second syntax element; and generating one or more views using image-domain warping and based on the video and one or more warp maps.
