+2012-01-27 v1.0.0 "Duclair"
+ Our fourth named release, focused on performance and features related to
+ real-time encoding. It also fixes a decoder crash bug introduced in
+ v0.9.7, so all users of that release are encouraged to upgrade.
+
+ - Upgrading:
+ This release is ABI incompatible with prior releases of libvpx, so the
+ "major" version number has been bumped to 1. You must recompile your
+ applications against the latest version of the libvpx headers. The
+ API remains compatible, and this should not require code changes in most
+ applications.
+
+ - Enhancements:
+ This release introduces several substantial new features to the encoder,
+ of particular interest to real time streaming applications.
+
+ Temporal scalability allows the encoder to produce a stream that can
+ be decimated to different frame rates, with independent rate targetting
+ for each substream.
+
+ Multiframe quality enhancement postprocessing can make visual quality
+ more consistent in the presence of frames that are substantially
+ different quality than the surrounding frames, as in the temporal
+ scalability case and in some forced keyframe scenarios.
+
+ Multiple-resolution encoding support allows the encoding of the
+ same content at different resolutions faster than encoding them
+ separately.
+
+ - Speed:
+ Optimization targets for this release included the decoder and the real-
+ time modes of the encoder. Decoder speed on x86 has improved 10.5% with
+ this release. Encoder improvements followed a curve where speeds 1-3
+ improved 4.0%-1.5%, speeds 4-8 improved <1%, and speeds 9-16 improved
+ 1.5% to 10.5%, respectively. "Best" mode speed is consistent with the
+ Cayuga release.
+
+ - Quality:
+ Encoder quality in the single stream case is consistent with the Cayuga
+ release.
+
+ - Bug Fixes:
+ This release fixes an OOB read decoder crash bug present in v0.9.7
+ related to the clamping of motion vectors in SPLITMV blocks. This
+ behavior could be triggered by corrupt input or by starting
+ decoding from a P-frame.
+
+
2011-08-15 v0.9.7-p1 "Cayuga" patch 1
This is an incremental bugfix release against Cayuga. All users of that
release are strongly encouraged to upgrade.
