Abstract
The invention, in a first aspect, is a method for mitigating edge effects in a decompressed video image. The method comprises first reads an N×N group of pixels defining a vertical edge between two blocks in a video frame row by row into N registers, wherein N is a predetermined number defining the length of a filter. The content of the N registers is then transposed and then filtered in the filter. The filtered content of the N registers is then transposed and stored back from where it was read. In other aspects, the invention is a program storage device encoded with instructions that, when executed by a computer, perform such a method; a computer programmed to perform such a method; and a computing system capable of performing such a method.
