Various embodiments for calculating a motion vector predictor for decoding a motion vector of a current block are provided. The motion vector is selected from a candidate list. When a motion vector used for coding a first block spatially adjacent to the current block in a current picture is useable for coding the current block, one or more first candidates is added to the candidate list based on the motion vector used for coding the first block. A second candidate is added to the candidate list based on a motion vector used for coding a second block within a first collocated picture. When a total number of available candidates in the candidate list is less than a predetermined number, a third candidate is added to the candidate list based on a motion vector used for coding a third block within a second collocated picture.
