Methods, systems and devices for using flexible and efficient partitioning techniques are described. An exemplary method for visual media decoding includes applying, to a current visual media block, a partitioning process that splits the current visual media block into more than four sub-blocks; decoding, based on a bitstream representation, the more than four sub-blocks; and decoding, based on the more than four sub-blocks and the partitioning process, the current visual media block. Another exemplary method for visual media encoding includes receiving input data associated with a current visual media block; applying, to the input data, a partitioning process that splits the current visual media block into more than four sub-blocks; encoding, based on the partitioning process, the more than four sub-blocks; and generating, based on the encoding, a bitstream representation of the current visual media block.
