A method and apparatus for use of reference block based temporal prediction in video coding is disclosed. One or more syntax elements are provided for reference block based temporal prediction in encoding and decoding video signals. In one embodiment, a reference block enabling flag is introduced, which is suitable to indicate whether the reference block based or the legacy reference frame based temporal prediction is used. In one embodiment, a syntax element relating to the reference list is introduced, which is suitable to indicate whether the backward or forward reference buffer is used for prediction. In one embodiment, a syntax element relating to the reference differential distance is introduced, which is suitable to indicate the relative distance between a reference block and its predictor. In one embodiment, a syntax element relating to the reference distance predictor is introduced, which is suitable to indicate which reference block distance predictor is used for prediction. |
