A method of post-processing decompressed images includes identification of the direction of an image edge in a pixel block (12) of the image (10) and filtering applied along the boundary of the block in a direction substantially parallel to the detected image edge (22). Pixels are selected for filtering on the basis of the quantization parameter of the block of which they are members, the relative difference between pixels adjacent to the block boundary, and significant changes value of pixels in a filtering segment. Filtering is applied parallel to the detected edge (22) to protect the sharpness of the edge while reducing or eliminating blocking and ringing artifacts. A method of separately post-processing fields of interlaced video eliminating complications arising from separate compression of the fields is also disclosed. <IMAGE> |
