Abstract

The following embodiments describe an approach for selecting an intra prediction mode for video encoding, such as occurs in the H.264 standard. One embodiment describes a method of selecting an optimum intra prediction mode. This method involves selecting a first intra prediction mode, which is used to determine a search order for a number of intra prediction modes. These intra prediction modes are then evaluated in order to identify the optimum intra prediction mode.
