Patent ID: 8243785

Claim:
Method for processing video data for display on a display device having a plurality of luminous elements corresponding to the pixels of a picture, the method comprising the steps of providing a GCC code for coding video input data, evaluating or providing a motion amplitude of a picture or a part of the picture, determining a texture value within the picture or part of the picture said texture value being a skin tone value; providing at least one sub-set code of said GCC code, varying the GCC code or one of the subset codes depending on the determined texture value by multiplying a value of said motion amplitude by a factor depending on the skin tone value, said value of said motion amplitude being used for generating or selecting the GCC code or one of the sub-set codes coding the video data with said GCC code for small motion amplitude or said at least one sub-set code depending on said motion amplitude, and selecting a sub-set code with a lower number of coding levels for a greater motion amplitude.
