Abstract
An apparatus and method are provided for compensating a block error in an image frame. This may include a video codec decoder for decoding an inputted image frame, and outputting a decoded image frame. An error concealment block may detect an error-generated block in the decoded image frame and compensate the detected error block through a median filter, and output the compensated image frame.
Claims3
A method comprising:
- decoding an input video signal into video frames, at least one video frame having at least one target pixel block to be filtered, said decoding comprising performing motion compensation on a predictive-coded frame;
- filtering said target pixel block by using at least one pixel value of said target pixel block and multiple pixel values of one other pixel block adjacent to said target pixel block, the filtering being performed upon consideration of a frame type, the frame type including an intra-coded frame and a predictive-coded frame,
- wherein said filtering comprises:
- obtaining an absolute value of a result from calculations using a difference between said at least one pixel value of said target pixel block and said multiple pixel values of said one other pixel block;
- obtaining, based on a comparison of said absolute value with a particular value, a compensation value calculated by using said at least one pixel value of said target pixel block and said multiple pixel values of said one other pixel block;
- and
- applying said compensation value to compensate for said target pixel block.
