Aspects of a method and system for digital image contour removal (DCR) are provided. Digital image contours resulting from video compression may be detected in a portion of a video image by determining a variance within a search window. The variance may be compared to a threshold value for selecting the appropriate search window size. The variance may be adjusted to account for image brightness via a programmable offset value. A low pass filter having a window size that matches that of the selected search window size may be utilized to remove the detected digital image contours. Half-toning may be utilized to smooth out results for 8-bit digital video outputs. Half-toning may be based on a combination of ordered and random dither. Removal of digital image contours in video images may be performed in combination with the removal of mosquito noise and/or block noise in the video image.
