Abstract
A method for treating inter-frame motion in a series of consecutive signal frames of a composite video signal includes the steps of, for an evaluation pixel position in each frame of a test frame-set including three successive signal frames: (a) determining whether there is at least a predetermined difference in chroma component or in luma component signals at the evaluation pixel; (b) if in step (a) there is not a predetermined difference in chroma component signals or in luma component signals, determining whether a first and third frame of the test frame-set are substantially identical; (c) determining whether at least a first predetermined number of the luma or chroma component signals in the test frame-set present at least one false color; and (d) determining whether at least a second predetermined number of high frequency luma component signals exist in the test frame-set.
