A filter for video coding is provided, where the filter is configured for processing a block for generation of a filtered block, and the block comprises a plurality of pixels. The filter includes one or more processor configured to: obtain a quantization parameter (QP) of the block; obtain a threshold (THR) based on the QP; and obtain a look up table based on QP, so as to generate a filtered block based on the threshold and the look up table. The filter is provided allowing improving the efficiency for video coding.
