Abstract  A new all-zero block determination rule was used to reduce the complexity of the AVS-M encoder. It reuses the sum of absolute difference of 4×4 block obtained from motion estimation or intra prediction as parameters so that the determination threshold need to be computed only once when quantization parameter (QP) is invariable for given video sequence. This method avoids a lot of computation for transform, quantization, inverse transform, inverse quantization and block reconstruction. Simulation results showed that it can save about 20%~50% computation without any video quality degradation.
