Abstract

See full text

In a method, receiver and display device a compressed data stream is decompressed. Decompression may cause ringing effect. In order to reduce ringing effects an analysis window (AWH, AWV) is used, which is divided into two sub-areas (AWH1, AWH2, AWV1, AWV2) along a dividing line d. For each of the sub areas a maximum pixel value gradient (MAXD1, MAXD2) is determined, wherein gradients are determined in two directions. If the maximum of all gradients (max(MAXD1, MAXD2) exceeds a threshold (max(MAXD1,MAXD2)>Tmax), low pass filtering is applied, provided that the difference between the maximum gradients for each of the areas is above a threshold (.ae butted.MAXD2-MAXD1.ae butted.>T1). The direction of low pass filtering is determined by the sign of the difference of the between the maximum pixel value gradient for the sub-areas.
