Abstract

See full text

The invention relates to a method for generating for at least one macroblock of a high resolution image at least one motion predictor from motion data associated to macroblock(s) of a low resolution image. The method comprises the following steps: —defining a virtual structure made up of non overlapping macroblocks, called virtual base layer macroblocks; —identifying for the high resolution macroblock corresponding virtual base layer macroblocks in the virtual image on the basis of the location of the high resolution macroblock within the high resolution image and on the basis of the ratios of low resolution and high resolution images dimensions; —deriving, for each identified virtual base layer macroblocks, motion data from motion data associated to at least one macroblock of a corresponding low resolution macroblocks pair on the basis of the field/frame mode of the corresponding low resolution macroblocks pair and on the basis of the field/frame mode of the high resolution macroblock; —resampling motion data associated to the corresponding virtual base layer macroblocks so as to generate the at least one motion predictor.
