Recently, for satisfying many application demands such as coding delay, computing power, transporting channel characteristic, etc, many profiles are supported in video coding standards. Therefore, in transcoding between same standards or between other standards, the functional difference of profiles supported by application occur many problems. In this paper, transcoding MPEG-2 main profile to H.264/AVC baseline profile which has restriction in the number of reference frame is focused. In this case, the bidirectional prediction supported in MPEG-2 main profile is not supported in H.264/AVC baseline profile. Also, in the restriction of reference frame, motion vectors in the MPEG-2 decoder as predictor should be adjusted. In this paper, the proposed algorithm is based on the characteristic of which motion. vector is uniform according to the distance from reference frame. The adaptive search techniques through the determination of the uniformity extremely reduce the computational complexity.
