Abstract:
A method and apparatus are provided for encoding and decoding image information. The encoding comprises receiving a block of pixels; creating a set of motion vector prediction candidates for the block of pixels; and examining the set to determine if a motion vector prediction candidate is a temporal motion vector prediction, or a spatial motion vector prediction. If the motion vector prediction candidate is a temporal motion vector prediction, the motion vector prediction candidate is kept in the set. If the motion vector prediction candidate is a spatial motion vector prediction, it is examined whether the set comprises a motion vector prediction candidate corresponding with the spatial motion vector prediction; and if so, the motion vector prediction candidate is removed from the set. Once the set is created, one of the candidates from the set is selected to represent a motion vector prediction for the block of pixels.

Claim (Index 16):
The apparatus according to  claim 14 , wherein the computer program code to determine whether to include the motion vector prediction candidate in the set or not cause apparatus perform at least one of the following:\n to compare motion vector information of the motion vector prediction candidate with motion vector information of a spatial motion vector prediction candidate; to compare a reference index of the motion vector prediction candidate with a reference index of a spatial motion vector prediction candidate, which has been included in the set; and to examine whether the motion vector prediction candidate is generated by processing one or more than one motion vector prediction candidates or not.
