  • Publication number: 20230276069
    Abstract: A video coder may determine a motion vector of a non-adjacent block of a current picture of the video data. The non-adjacent block is non-adjacent to a current block of the current picture. Furthermore, the video coder determines, based on the motion vector of the non-adjacent block, a motion vector predictor (MVP) for the current block. The video coder may determine a motion vector of the current block. The video coder may also determine a predictive block based on the motion vector of the current block.
