Systems, apparatuses, and methods for implementing spatial block-level pixel activity extraction optimization leveraging motion vectors are disclosed. Control logic coupled to an encoder generates block-level pixel activity metrics for a new frame based on the previously calculated block-level pixel activity data from a reference frame. A cost is calculated for each block of a new frame with respect to a corresponding block of the reference frame. If the cost is less than a first threshold, then the control logic generates an estimate of a pixel activity metric for the block which is equal to a previously calculated pixel activity metric for a corresponding block of the reference frame. If the cost is greater than the first threshold but less than a second threshold, an estimate of the pixel activity metric is generated by extrapolating from the previously calculated pixel activity metric.
