Abstract

A method for compressing encoding data of a sequence of pictures is based on a motion estimation among the successive images to remove the temporal redundancy from the data. The method recognizes a 3:2 pulldown conversion of a series of photograms of a filmed sequence in a sequence of TV frames. The TV frames have a number greater than the number of the photograms by duplicating certain pictures in a certain order. The redundancy due to such picture duplications is eliminated.
