The Joint Video Team (JVT) of ISO/IEC MPEG and ITU-T VCEG are finalising a new standard for
the coding (compression) of natural video images. The new standard [1] will be known as H.264 and
also MPEG-4 Part 10, “Advanced Video Coding”. This document describes the methods of filtering
reconstructed blocks in an H.264 CODEC. Note that the H.264 draft standard is not yet finalised and
so readers are encouraged to refer to the latest version of the standard.
