ABSTRACT:
In, for example, a motion compensated video standards converter blocks in a first field or frame of a video signal are each compared with a plurality of blocks in the following field or frame of the video signal for deriving motion vectors representing the motion of the content of respective blocks between the first field or frame and the following field or frame, a correlation surface is generated for respective blocks in the first field or frame, the correlation surface representing the difference between the content of the block in the first field or frame and the content of each block in the following field or frame with which it has been compared, the correlation surface is tested for a clear minimum, the size of the blocks is increased to generate new correlation surfaces, each new correlation surface is tested for a clear minimum, and motion vectors are derived in dependence on the clearest minimum so found.
