Sun Aug 28 11:51:23 UTC 2016 - joerg.lorenzen@ki.tng.de

​

- Update to version 2.0

  API and Key Behavior Changes

  * x265_rc_stats added to x265_picture, containing all RC decision

    points for that frame.

  * PTL: high tier is now allowed by default, chosen only if

    necessary.

  * multi-pass: First pass now uses slow-firstpass by default,

    enabling better RC decisions in future passes.

  * pools: fix behaviour on multi-socketed Windows systems, provide

    more flexibility in determining thread and pool counts.

  * ABR: improve bits allocation in the first few frames, abr reset,

    vbv and cutree improved.

  New Features

  * uhd-bd: Enforce Ultra-HD Blu-ray Disc parameters

    (overrides any other settings).

  * rskip: Enables skipping recursion to analyze lower CU sizes

    using heuristics at different rd-levels. Provides good visual

    quality gains at the highest quality presets.

  * rc-grain: Enables a new rate control mode specifically for

    grainy content. Strictly prevents QP oscillations within and

    between frames to avoid grain fluctuations.

  * tune grain: A fully refactored and improved option to encode

    film grain content including QP control as well as analysis

    options.

  * asm: ARM assembly is now enabled by default, native or cross

    compiled builds supported on armv6 and later systems.

  Misc

  * An SSIM calculation bug was corrected

- soname bump to 87.

- Fixed arm.patch.

- Added libnuma-devel as buildrequires for arch x86_64 (except

  for openSUSE 13.1 because libnuma-devel >= 2.0.9 is required).

​

    assembly support exists.

  * Main12 and Intra/Still picture profiles are now supported.

    Still picture profile is detected based on

    x265_param::totalFrames.

  * Three classes of encoding statistics are now available

    through the API.

    + x265_stats - contains encoding statistics, available

      through x265_encoder_get_stats()

    + x265_frame_stats and x265_cu_stats - contains frame

      encoding statistics, available through recon x265_picture

  * --csv

  * x265_encoder_log() is now deprecated

  * x265_param::csvfn is also deprecated

  * --log-level now controls only console logging, frame

    level console logging has been removed.

  * Support added for new color transfer characteristic ARIB

    STD-B67

  New Features:

  * limit-refs

    + This feature limits the references analysed for

      individual CUS.

    + Provides a nice tradeoff between efficiency and

      performance.

    + aq-mode 3

  * A new aq-mode that provides additional biasing for

    low-light conditions.

​

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Fri May 29 09:11:02 UTC 2015 - aloisio@gmx.com

​

- soname bump to 59

- Update to version 1.7

  * large amount of assembly code optimizations

  * some preliminary support for high dynamic range content

  * improvements for multi-library support

  * some new quality features

    (full documentation at: http://x265.readthedocs.org/en/1.7)

  * This release simplifies the multi-library support introduced

    in version 1.6. Any libx265 can now forward API requests to

    other installed libx265 libraries (by name) so applications

    like ffmpeg and the x265 CLI can select between 8bit and 10bit

    encodes at runtime without the need of a shim library or

    library load path hacks. See --output-depth, and

    http://x265.readthedocs.org/en/1.7/api.html#multi-library-interface

  * For quality, x265 now allows you to configure the quantization

    group size smaller than the CTU size (for finer grained AQ

    adjustments). See --qg-size.

  * x265 now supports limited mid-encode reconfigure via a new public

    method: x265_encoder_reconfig()

  * For HDR, x265 now supports signaling the SMPTE 2084 color transfer

    function, the SMPTE 2086 mastering display color primaries, and the

    content light levels. See --master-display, --max-cll

  * x265 will no longer emit any non-conformant bitstreams unless

    --allow-non-conformance is specified.

  * The x265 CLI now supports a simple encode preview feature. See

    --recon-y4m-exec.

  * The AnnexB NAL headers can now be configured off, via x265_param.bAnnexB

    This is not configurable via the CLI because it is a function of the

    muxer being used, and the CLI only supports raw output files. See

    --annexb

  Misc:

  * --lossless encodes are now signaled as level 8.5

  * --profile now has a -P short option

  * The regression scripts used by x265 are now public, and can be found at:

    https://bitbucket.org/sborho/test-harness

  * x265's cmake scripts now support PGO builds, the test-harness can be

    used to drive the profile-guided build process.

Tue Apr 28 20:08:06 UTC 2015 - aloisio@gmx.com

​

- soname bumped to 51

- Update to stable version 1.6

  Perfomance changes:

  * heavy improvements for AVX2 capable platforms

    (Haswell and later Intel CPUs) and work efficiency

    improvements for multiple-socket machines.

  API changes:

  * --threads N replaced by --pools N,N and --lookahead-slices N

  * --[no-]rdoq-level N - finer control over RDOQ effort

  * --min-cu-size N - trade-off compression for performance

  * --max-tu-size N - trade-off compression for performance

  * --[no-]temporal-layers - code unreferenced B frames in temporal

    layer 1

  * --[no-]cip aliases added for --[no-]constrained-intra

  * Added support for new color transfer functions "smpte-st-2084"

    and "smpte-st-428

  * --limit-refs N was added, but not yet implemented

  * Deprecated x265_setup_primitives() was removed from the public

    API and is no longer exported DLLs

  Threading changes:

  * The x265 thread pool has been made NUMA aware.

  * The --threads  parameter, which used to specify a global

    pool size, has been replaced with a --pools parameter which

    allows you to specify a pool size per NUMA node (aka CPU socket

    or package). The default is still to allocate one pool worker

    thread per logical core on the machine, but with --pools one

    can isolate those threads to a given socket.

  * Other than socket isolation, the biggest visible change in the

    NUMA aware thread pools is the increase in work efficiency.

    The total utilization will generally decrease but the performance

    will increase since worker threads spend less time context

    switching.  Also, the threading of the lookahead was made more

    work-efficient. Each lookahead job is a much larger piece of work.

    Before (1.5):

    disable thread pool: --threads 1

    default thread pool: --threads 0

    restrict to 4 threads: --threads 4

    After (1.6):

    disable thread pools: --pools 0

    default thread pools: --pools *

    restrict to 4 threads: --pools 4

    restrict to 4 threads on socket 1: --pools -,4

    restrict to all threads on socket 0: --pools +,-

  Multi-lib interface:

  * In order to support runtime selection of a libx265

    shared library, we have introduced an x265_api structure

    and an x265_api_get() function. Applications which use

    this interface to acquire the libx265 functional interface

    will be able to use shim libraries to bind a particular build

    of libx265 at run time. See the API documentation for full

    details.

Sun Feb 22 09:07:11 UTC 2015 - aloisio@gmx.com

​

- soname bump

- Update to stable version 1.5

  * improvements in Main10 compression efficiency and performance

    and psycho-visual optimizations now enabled by default

  Feature additions:

  * analysis re-use features have been completed

  * rate control zones have been introduced

  * --tune grain introduced

  * deblocking tC and Beta offsets are now configurable

  * denoise is seperately configurable for inter and intra CUs

  * frame based CSV logging has been improved

  * New support for VTune task profiles

  Presets and defaults:

  * ultrafast no longer disables the deblocking loop filter

  * psy-rd defaults to 0.3   (was 0, disabled)

  * psy-rdoq defaults to 1.0 (was 0, disabled)

  * aq-mode defaults to 1    (was 2, auto-variance)

  * 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 encodes no longer generate compliance warnings

  API changes:

  * param.rc.rateTolerance has been removed and replaced with a simpler

    param.rc.bStrictCbr flag.

  * --log-level debug is now --log-level 4 instead of --log-level 3.

    A new 'frame' log level was inserted at level 3 in order to support

    frame level CSV logging without also enabling frame level console

    logging. Using the string name 'debug' is unambiguous as its

    behavior has not changed.

- version 1.4

  * large refactoring in the analysis code

  Feature additions:

  * --pmode (parallel mode decision)

  * --pme (parallel motion estimation).

  Presets and defaults:

  * --amp is now respected in RD levels 2, 3, and 4 (previously only

    in 5 and 6).

  * --b-intra is now respected in all RD levels.

  * --fast-cbf, which has only ever effective at RD levels 5 and 6,

    is no longer enabled uselessly in the fastest presets.

  * --weightb is now enabled by default at presets slower, veryslow,

    and placebo.

  * --cu-lossless was changed to only attempt a lossless encode of

    the best lossy encode method. This made --cu-lossless a much less

    expensive encode option to have enabled, and hopefully made the

    feature more robust and maintainable.

  * The upper threshold for --psy-rdoq was raised to 50 (from 10)

    since the higher values were found to be beneficial for sources

    with high frequency noise (film grain).

  * The default thread pool size logic was updated to account for the

    addition of --pmode and --pme (if WPP is disabled but --pmode or

    --pme are enabled, a thread pool is still allocated).
