  • v3.4.0

    Release v3.4.0 Fluttershy
    
    2022-06-17 v3.4.0
      This release includes compression efficiency and perceptual quality
      improvements, speedup and memory optimizations, and some new features.
      There are no ABI or API breaking changes in this release.
    
      - New Features
        * New --dist-metric flag with "qm-psnr" value to use quantization
          matrices in the distortion computation for RD search. The default
          value is "psnr".
        * New command line option "--auto-intra-tools-off=1" to make
          all-intra encoding faster for high bit rate under
          "--deltaq-mode=3" mode.
        * New rate control library aom_av1_rc for real-time hardware
          encoders. Supports CBR for both one spatial layer and SVC.
        * New image format AOM_IMG_FMT_NV12 can be used as input to the
          encoder. The presence of AOM_IMG_FMT_NV12 can be detected at
          compile time by checking if the macro AOM_HAVE_IMG_FMT_NV12 is
          defined.
        * New codec controls for the encoder:
          o AV1E_SET_AUTO_INTRA_TOOLS_OFF. Only in effect if
            --deltaq-mode=3.
          o AV1E_SET_RTC_EXTERNAL_RC
          o AV1E_SET_FP_MT. Only supported if libaom is built with
            -DCONFIG_FRAME_PARALLEL_ENCODE=1.
          o AV1E_GET_TARGET_SEQ_LEVEL_IDX
        * New key-value pairs for the key-value API:
          o --auto-intra-tools-off=0 (default) or 1. Only in effect if
            --deltaq-mode=3.
          o --strict-level-conformance=0 (default) or 1
          o --fp-mt=0 (default) or 1. Only supported if libaom is built
            with -DCONFIG_FRAME_PARALLEL_ENCODE=1.
        * New aomenc options (not supported by the key-value API):
          o --nv12
    
      - Compression Efficiency Improvements
        * Correctly calculate SSE for high bitdepth in skip mode, 0.2% to
          0.6% coding gain.
        * RTC at speed 9/10: BD-rate gain of ~4/5%
        * RTC screen content coding: many improvements for real-time screen
          at speed 10 (quality, speedup, and rate control), up to high
          resolutions (1080p).
        * RTC-SVC: fixes to make intra-only frames work for spatial layers.
        * RTC-SVC: quality improvements for temporal layers.
        * AV1 RT: A new passive rate control strategy for screen content, an
          average of 7.5% coding gain, with some clips of 20+%. The feature
          is turned off by default due to higher bit rate variation.
    
      - Perceptual Quality Improvements
        * RTC: Visual quality improvements for high speeds (9/10)
        * Improvements in coding quality for all intra mode
    
      - Speedup and Memory Optimizations
        * ~10% speedup in good quality mode encoding.
        * ~7% heap memory reduction in good quality encoding mode for speed
          5 and 6.
        * Ongoing improvements to intra-frame encoding performance on Arm
        * Faster encoding speed for "--deltaq-mode=3" mode.
        * ~10% speedup for speed 5/6, ~15% speedup for speed 7/8, and
          ~10% speedup for speed 9/10 in real time encoding mode
        * ~20% heap memory reduction in still-picture encoding mode for
          360p-720p resolutions with multiple threads
        * ~13% speedup for speed 6 and ~12% speedup for speed 9 in
          still-picture encoding mode.
        * Optimizations to improve multi-thread efficiency for still-picture
          encoding mode.
    
      - Bug Fixes
        * b/204460717: README.md: replace master with main
        * b/210677928: libaom disable_order is surprising for
          max_reference_frames=3
        * b/222461449: -DCONFIG_TUNE_BUTTERAUGLI=1 broken
        * b/227207606: write_greyscale writes incorrect chroma in highbd
          mode
        * b/229955363: Integer-overflow in linsolve_wiener
