Abstract

A video processing system for de-interlacing a video signal comprises a motion estimation block, a refinement motion estimation block, and a de-interlacer. The motion estimation block generates integer motion vectors for the video signal. The refinement motion estimation block generates fractional motion vectors as a function of the generated integer motion vectors and select frames of the video signal. The de-interlacer generates an output as a function of the generated fractional motion vectors and the selected frames of the video signal.
