Described herein are apparatus and methods for enhancing perceived visual quality of video which has been coded using enhanced intra predictive coding referred to as boundary adaptive intra predictions (BAIP). BAIP is performed in response to the type of prediction, and the smoothness of the boundary between a current block and its neighboring pixels which have already been coded. Intra prediction is performed separately for each pixel along the left side and/or top side within a current block, which takes into account the pixel itself and multiple pixels along the left and/or top border of that current block. The BAIP technique can be applied for different block sizes, including 4×4, 8×8, and 16×16, and includes vertical, horizontal, and DC intra predictions.
