Coding method and apparatus with candidate motion vectors

A transmitting method for transmitting a bitstream to a terminal, the bit stream being generated by coding a current block of a picture and the bitstream having an index for identifying a motion vector candidate from a motion vector candidate list, the motion vector candidate list being generated by performing processes, the processes including:

• generating the motion vector candidate list including motion vector candidates and a value for each of the motion vector candidates, the motion vector candidates including a first candidate and a second candidate, the second candidate being arranged before the first candidate in the motion vector candidate list;
• and
• sorting the first candidate before the second candidate in the motion vector candidate list based on the value of the first candidate and the value of the second candidate,
• wherein the value of the first candidate is higher than the value of the second candidate, and
• for each motion vector candidate of the motion vector candidates, the value is based on a number of times the motion vector candidate is selected as a motion vector predictor for neighboring blocks.
