Apparatus for reconstructing a multi-view signal coded into a multi-view data stream, comprising a dependent-view reconstructor configured to derive, for at least one of blocks of a current picture in a dependent view of the multi-view signal, a list of motion vector predictor candidates, by determining a disparity vector for the at least one block, representing a disparity between the current picture of the dependent view and a current picture of a reference view of the multi-view signal at the at least one block of the current picture of the dependent view , via motion and disparity vectors associated with a previously decoded portion of the multi-view signal; determining a block within the current picture of the reference view using the determined disparity vector; adding a motion vector to the list of motion vector predictor candidates which depends on a motion vector associated with the determined block of the picture of the reference view; and extract, for the at least one block of the current picture of the dependent view , index information specifying one motion vector predictor candidate of the list of motion vector predictor candidates, from the multi-view data stream; and reconstruct the at least one block of the current picture of the dependent view by performing a motion-compensated prediction of the at least one block of the current picture of the dependent view using a motion vector which depends on the specified motion vector candidate, wherein the apparatus further comprises a reference-view reconstructor configured to reconstruct the current picture (32t1) of the reference view of the multi-view signal using temporal motion-compensated prediction based on motion data transmitted within the multi-view data stream for the reference view ; and wherein the apparatus is characterized in that it further comprises a depth estimator configured to estimate a depth map of the current picture (32t2) of the dependent view by generating a depth map estimate of the current picture (32t1) of the reference view by applying the motion data for the reference view onto a depth map estimate of a previous picture of the reference view ; and warping the depth map estimate of the current picture (32t1) of the reference view into the dependent view so as to obtain the depth map estimate of the current picture (32t2) of the dependent view , wherein the dependent-view reconstructor is configured to, in determining the disparity vector for the at least one block, subject the depth data estimate at the at least one block to depth-to-disparity conversion to obtain the determined disparity vector. determining a disparity vector for the at least one block, representing a disparity between the current picture of the dependent view and a current picture of a reference view of the multi-view signal at the at least one block of the current picture of the dependent view , via motion and disparity vectors associated with a previously decoded portion of the multi-view signal; determining a block within the current picture of the reference view using the determined disparity vector; adding a motion vector to the list of motion vector predictor candidates which depends on a motion vector associated with the determined block of the picture of the reference view; and generating a depth map estimate of the current picture (32t1) of the reference view by applying the motion data for the reference view onto a depth map estimate of a previous picture of the reference view ; and warping the depth map estimate of the current picture (32t1) of the reference view into the dependent view so as to obtain the depth map estimate of the current picture (32t2) of the dependent view , <EOS>
