Abstract:
Several methods and systems for reducing blocking artifacts are disclosed. In an embodiment, the method includes receiving a pair of adjacent blocks having an edge being positioned between the adjacent blocks. The pair of adjacent blocks is associated with one or more coding blocks. The one or more coding blocks comprise one or more coding information associated with the coding of the pair of adjacent blocks. The method also includes conducting a determination of whether the pair of adjacent blocks is coded in a skip-mode based on the one or more coding information. The edge is filtered based on the determination. Filtering the edge comprises disabling a de-blocking filtering of the edge based on a determination that the pair of adjacent blocks is coded in the skip-mode; and enabling the de-blocking filtering of the edge based on determination that the pair of adjacent blocks is not associated with the skip-mode.

Claim (Index 18):
An integrated circuit comprising:\n a coding module configured to perform at least one of encoding of multimedia data and decoding of encoded multimedia data, the coding module comprising:\n a processing module is configured to:\n receive a pair of adjacent blocks having an edge being positioned between the adjacent blocks, the pair of adjacent blocks being associated with one or more coding blocks, the one or more coding blocks comprising one or more coding information associated with the coding of the pair of adjacent blocks; and \n conducting a determination of whether the pair of adjacent blocks is coded in a skip-mode based on the one or more coding information; and \n \n a filtering module communicatively associated with the processing module and configured to filter the edge based on the determination, the filtering module configured to perform one of:\n disabling a de-blocking filtering of the edge based on a determination that the pair of adjacent blocks is associated with the skip-mode; and \n enabling the de-blocking filtering of the edge based on a determination that the pair of adjacent blocks is not associated with the skip-mode; and \n \n a memory module communicatively associated with the coding module, the memory module configured to store the multimedia data subsequent to one of an encoding of the video data and a decoding of the multimedia data.
