Method of selecting a reference picture

摘要

In one embodiment, the method includes obtaining a reference picture list having multiple reference pictures, reordering a reference picture index allocated to each reference picture in the reference picture list, and obtaining a field reference picture index associated with the current field macroblock. A frame reference picture index is determined based on the field reference picture index and the reference picture index, and the reference picture in field unit having a parity equal to a parity of the field macroblock is selected if the reference picture index is an even value.
