ABSTRACT:
A moving picture coding apparatus1includes a counter unit102which counts the number of pictures following an intra coded picture; and a motion estimation unit101which compares respectively only reference pictures which are the intra coded picture or the following pictures, selected from among a reference picture Ref1, a reference picture Ref2and a reference picture Ref3stored in memories408˜410, with a picture signal Vin, and determines the reference picture whose inter picture differential value is smallest.
