Claim:
1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium for storing data representing a block motion compensated video bit stream written in the non-transitory computer-readable medium, the video bit stream comprising: (i) a first block partition having a prediction type of inter-prediction, (ii) a second block partition having a prediction type of inter-prediction, the second block partition being edge adjacent to the first block partition; (iii) a third block partition; and (iv) an explicit signal, the explicit signal indicating a mode for the first block partition, wherein a first mode identified by the explicit signal identifies the first block partition as being block motion compensated by motion vector information of the second block partition, and a second mode identified by the explicit signal identifies the first block partition as being block motion compensated by motion vector information of the third block partition without motion vector information of the second block partition.
