A method of and apparatus are provided for determining an inter-mode in video encoding. The method includes calculating a motion vector by performing hierarchical motion estimation on a current block to be encoded in units of sub-pixels, storing reference area data indicated by the calculated motion vector in an internal memory, calculating a first cost by performing motion estimation in units of sub-pixels using the reference area data stored in the internal memory, calculating a second cost for the current block by performing motion estimation using a motion vector predicted, if reference area data indicated by the motion vector predicted calculated using motion vectors of neighboring blocks of the current block is included in the internal memory, and comparing the first-cost and the second cost and determining an inter-mode having the smallest cost. |
