The present disclosure relates to video encoding and decoding, and in particular, a method for inter prediction for a block in a frame of a video signal includes: constructing a history-based motion information candidate list, wherein the list is an ordered list comprising N history-based motion information candidates Hk containing motion information of N preceding blocks preceding the block, wherein each history-based motion information candidate comprises elements: one or more motion vectors (MVs), one or more reference picture indices corresponding to the MVs, and an interpolation filter index; adding one or more history-based motion information candidates from the history-based motion information candidate list into a motion information candidate list for the block; and deriving motion information for the block based on the motion information candidate list.
