ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method of filtering edges of a picture block with an edge-smoothing filter. The selection of the edge-smoothing filter depends on the size of the movement vector associated with each picture block BV to clarify the picture image and increase image quality. Alternatively, the selection of the edge-smoothing filter depends on the picture quality or both picture quality and the movement vector.
