Claim 16:
17. A method for generating a list of motion vector candidates (MVCs) for a current coding unit (CU), wherein the method comprises:
determining a pattern that is not available in a buffer or not stored in the buffer, wherein the pattern specifies a plurality of motion vector (MV) positions relative to a position of the current CU based on a first size of the current CU and a second size of a grid specifying a minimum distance between two of the plurality of MV positions belonging to the pattern, wherein the pattern is at least one of not available in a buffer or not stored in the buffer;
including, into the list, at least one MV based on the plurality of MV positions of the pattern;
determining a subset of MV positions for the plurality of MV positions, wherein the subset of MV positions is not available in the buffer or not stored in the buffer, and wherein the subset of MV positions comprise discarded MV positions;
assigning position information to the subset of MV positions comprising assigning to the subset of MV positions at least one of a plurality of x positions of the plurality of MV positions or a plurality of y positions of the plurality of MV positions; and
determining adjusted MV positions for the subset of MV positions, wherein the adjusted MV positions comprise a plurality of new x positions or a plurality of new y positions based on the position information and at least one of an x-offset value or a y-offset value.
