Abstract
A decoding method for an audio video coding standard (AVS) system is provided. According to a stop-fetching criterion, a stop-fetching flag is set to an enabled status or a disabled status. In an offset fetching procedure, it is determined whether an offset value is smaller than a threshold and whether the stop-fetching is in the disabled status. When a determination result is affirmative, one subsequent bit is fetched for the offset value, an offset shift value is correspondingly increased, and the determination step is iterated. When the determination result is negative, the offset fetching procedure is terminated. Next, it is determined whether a decoding result is a least probable symbol (LPS) or a most probable symbol (MPS).
