Single direction long interpolation filter
First Claim
1. A method for determining a prediction block, comprising:
- selecting a first interpolation filter for a first direction of the prediction block, the first interpolation filter having a first number of taps;
selecting a second interpolation filter for a second direction of the prediction block, the second interpolation filter having a second number of taps;
in response to determining that the first number of taps is greater than a threshold number of taps and the second number of taps is greater than the threshold number of taps, setting the second interpolation filter to an interpolation filter having a third number of taps, wherein the third number of taps is smaller than or equal to the threshold number of taps; and
generating the prediction block using the first interpolation filter and the second interpolation filter, wherein generating the prediction block comprises;
determining intermediate pixel values for the prediction block using the one of the first interpolation filter and the second interpolation filter having a smaller number of taps; and
determining prediction pixel values for the prediction block using the intermediate pixel values and the other of the first interpolation filter and the second interpolation filter.

Abstract
A first interpolation filter is selected for a first direction of the prediction block, and a second interpolation filter is selected for a second direction of the prediction block. The first interpolation filter has a first number of taps and the second interpolation filter has a second number of taps. The second interpolation filter is set to an interpolation filter having a third number of taps in response to determining that the first number of taps is greater than a threshold number of taps and the second number of taps is greater than a threshold number of taps. The third number of taps is smaller than or equal to the threshold number of taps. The prediction block is generated using the first interpolation filter and the second interpolation filter.
