Abstract

A pixel value of a pixel in a picture of a video sequence is modified by a weighted combination of the pixel value and at least one spatially neighboring pixel value in a filtering. The filtering depends on a pixel distance between the pixel and a neighboring pixel and on a pixel value difference between the pixel and a neighboring pixel value of the neighboring pixel. The filtering is controlled by a spatial parameter and a range parameter. The spatial parameter depends on at least one of a width and a height of a transform block, and on at least one of a prediction type of a block of pixels in the picture, a picture type of the picture, and a slice type of a slice in the picture.
