Claim 9:
10. The apparatus of claim 8,
wherein the processor is configured to:
check a current index of the HMVP candidate list;
determine whether the current index is smaller than a number of candidates within the HMVP candidate list;
determine whether a candidate corresponding to the current index in the HMVP candidate list and the HMVP candidate are identical when the current index is smaller than the number of candidates within the HMVP candidate list;
perform pruning for adding the HMVP candidate to the HMVP candidate list by removing the candidate corresponding to the current index when the candidate corresponding to the current index and the HMVP candidate are identical; and
increase the current index of the HMVP candidate list, and perform an operation of determining whether the increased current index is smaller than the number of candidates and whether the HMVP candidate and a candidate corresponding to the increased current index are identical, when the candidate corresponding to the current index and the HMVP candidate are different.
