Claim 48:
49. The encoder of claim 27, wherein the current block is an intra-predicted block of a first type, wherein the memory further stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to process an intra-predicted block by:
if the intra-predicted block is of a second type,
encoding a most probable flag into the data stream, which is to be inferred to be in a first flag state in case of the intra-predicted block being of the first type,

if the most probable flag assumes the first flag state,
deriving a list of most probable intra-prediction modes that forms a proper subset of a set of intra-prediction modes supported by the encoder,
encoding a most probable mode list pointer into the data stream which points into the list of most probable intra-prediction modes,
if the most probable flag assumes a second flag state,
encoding a further pointer into the data stream that points into a remainder set of intra-prediction modes that includes intra-prediction modes of the set of intra-prediction modes, disjoint to the list of most probable intra-prediction modes, and
intra-predicting the intra-predicted block en block or using a recursive quadtree-partitioning.
