- added SWF demux to extract MP3 track (not usable yet because no MP3
decoder)
- added fractional frame rate support
- codecs are no longer searched by read_header() (should fix ffserver
segfault)
version 0.4.3:
- BGR24 patch (initial patch by Jeroen Vreeken <pe1rxq at amsat.org>)
- fixed raw yuv output
- added motion rounding support in MPEG-4
- fixed motion bug rounding in MSMPEG4
- added B-frame handling in video core
- added full MPEG-1 decoding support
- added partial (frame only) MPEG-2 support
- changed the FOURCC code for H.263 to "U263" to be able to see the
+AVI/H.263 file with the UB Video H.263+ decoder. MPlayer works with
this +codec ;) (JuanJo).
- Halfpel motion estimation after MB type selection (JuanJo)
- added pgm and .Y.U.V output format
- suppressed 'img:' protocol. Simply use: /tmp/test%d.[pgm|Y] as input or
output.
- added pgmpipe I/O format (original patch from Martin Aumueller
<lists at reserv.at>, but changed completely since we use a format
instead of a protocol)
version 0.4.2:
- added H.263/MPEG-4/MSMPEG4 decoding support. MPEG-4 decoding support
(for OpenDivX) is almost complete: 8x8 MVs and rounding are
missing. MSMPEG4 support is complete.
- added prototype MPEG-1 decoder. Only I- and P-frames handled yet (it
can decode ffmpeg MPEGs :-)).
- added libavcodec API documentation (see apiexample.c).
- fixed image polyphase bug (the bottom of some images could be
greenish)
- added support for non clipped motion vectors (decoding only)
and image sizes non-multiple of 16
- added support for AC prediction (decoding only)
- added file overwrite confirmation (can be disabled with -y)
- added custom size picture to H.263 using H.263+ (Juanjo)
version 0.4.1:
- added MSMPEG4 (aka DivX) compatible encoder. Changed default codec
of AVI and ASF to DIV3.
- added -me option to set motion estimation method
(default=log). suppressed redundant -hq option.
- added options -acodec and -vcodec to force a given codec (useful for
AVI for example)
- fixed -an option
- improved dct_quantize speed
- factorized some motion estimation code
version 0.4.0:
- removing grab code from ffserver and moved it to ffmpeg. Added
multistream support to ffmpeg.
- added timeshifting support for live feeds (option ?date=xxx in the
URL)
- added high quality image resize code with polyphase filter (need
mmx/see optimization). Enable multiple image size support in ffserver.
- added multi live feed support in ffserver
- suppressed master feature from ffserver (it should be done with an
external program which opens the .ffm url and writes it to another
ffserver)
- added preliminary support for video stream parsing (WAV and AVI half
done). Added proper support for audio/video file conversion in
ffmpeg.
- added preliminary support for video file sending from ffserver
- redesigning I/O subsystem: now using URL based input and output
(see avio.h)
- added WAV format support
- added "tty user interface" to ffmpeg to stop grabbing gracefully
- added MMX/SSE optimizations to SAD (Sums of Absolutes Differences)
(Juan J. Sierralta P. a.k.a. "Juanjo" <juanjo at atmlab.utfsm.cl>)
- added MMX DCT from mpeg2_movie 1.5 (Juanjo)
- added new motion estimation algorithms, log and phods (Juanjo)
- changed directories: libav for format handling, libavcodec for
codecs
version 0.3.4:
- added stereo in MPEG audio encoder
version 0.3.3:
- added 'high quality' mode which use motion vectors. It can be used in
real time at low resolution.
- fixed rounding problems which caused quality problems at high
bitrates and large GOP size
version 0.3.2: small fixes
- ASF fixes
- put_seek bug fix
version 0.3.1: added avi/divx support
- added AVI support
- added MPEG-4 codec compatible with OpenDivX. It is based on the H.263 codec
- added sound for flash format (not tested)
version 0.3: initial public release
