Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 0:
1. A video decoder, comprising:
memory; and
a processor coupled to the memory and configured to:
convert a bitstream into inter-prediction parameters;
reconstruct motion data based on the inter-prediction parameters;
determine if a size of a current prediction unit meets a threshold;
if the size of the current prediction unit meets the threshold:
refine the motion data based on finding a match between a current template of a current picture and a reference template of a reference picture;
perform a motion compensation operation with the refined motion data and a reference block to generate an inter-prediction block; and
add the inter-prediction block to an inter-residual block to produce a reconstructed block,
wherein the motion data is reconstructed without refined motion data associated with a previous prediction unit;

if the size of the current prediction unit does not meet the threshold:
disable refining the motion data; and
perform the motion compensation operation with the reconstructed motion data and the reference block to generate the inter-prediction block.
