In electrical engineering and computer science, Video processing is a particular case of signal processing, where the input and output signals are video files or video streams. Video processing techniques are used in video codecs, video players and other devices. For example—commonly only design and video processing is different in TV sets of different manufactures[citation needed].

  • Intrafilters: inside of codec
  • Postfilters: used after decoding

Common prefilters are following:

As intrafilter in current standards only deblocking is used.

Common postfilters are following:
