Abstract:
Several methods and systems for encoding pictures are disclosed. In an embodiment, a method comprises dividing an LCU of a picture into a plurality of MERs having size equal to or less than a predetermined size. For one or more MERs of the plurality of MERs, a number of first motion searches are performed for determining a first quad-tree based on a cost function associated with a first plurality of PUs of the one or more MERs. A number of second motion searches are performed for the LCU, for determining a second quad-tree, based on the cost function associated with a second plurality of PUs of the LCU. The first quad-tree or the second quad-tree is selected for performing encoding of the picture based on a comparison of a first cost of the first quad-tree with a second cost of the second quad-tree.

Claim (Index 17):
The non-transitory computer readable medium of  claim 16 , further comprising:\n generating a first candidate list and a second candidate list, the first candidate list comprising a first search set and inter-cost information associated with the first plurality of PUs of the first search set, the first search set comprising a plurality of first MVs associated with the first plurality of PUs, the second candidate list comprising the second search set and inter-cost information associated with the second plurality of PUs of the second search set, the second search set comprising a plurality of second MVs associated with the second plurality of PUs, the second plurality of PUs comprising the first plurality of PUs having size greater than the predetermined size; and updating the first candidate list during the number of first motion searches and the second candidate list during the number of second motion searches.
