Abstract
In a deblocking operation, pixel values within a first block of pixels are compared, and pixel values in the first block are also compared to pixel values in a second block of pixels that is adjacent to the first block. Based on the results of the comparisons, a digital deblocking filter and a region of interest can be selected, where the region of interest identifies a number of pixels in the first block and a number of pixels in the second block to which the selected filter is to be applied.
