Abstract
The disclosure discloses a method for processing a video signal and an apparatus therefor. Specifically, the method of processing a video signal based on an inter prediction, comprising: configuring a merge list based on a neighboring block of a current block; adding a history based merge candidate included in a history based merge candidate list to the merge list when a number of a merge candidate included in the merge list is smaller than a first predetermined number; obtaining a merge index indicating a merge candidate used for an inter prediction of the current block within the merge list; and generating a prediction block of the current block based on motion information of a merge candidate indicated by the merge index, wherein a step of adding the history based merge candidate to the merge list comprises checking whether a second predetermined number of the history based merge candidate within the history based merge candidate list has the same motion information as the merge candidate included in the merge list.
