2012-06-27Added Prediction Filter to Mode SelectionAdrian Grange
Added the ability to optionally filter the prediction data when inter modes are selected (excludes SPLITMV, for now). The mode selection loop considers both the filtered and non-filtered prediction data when choosing mode. The filter can be turned on/off at the frame-level, or signaled for each MB.

2012-05-15Rewrite reference frame costing in the RD loop.Ronald S. Bultje
I now see I didn't write a very long description, so let's do it here then. We took a pretty big quality hit (0.1-0.2%) from my recent fix of the inversion of arguments to vp8_cost_bit() in the RD reference frame costing. I looked into it and basically the costing prevented us from switching reference frames. This is of course silly, since each frame codes its own prob_intra_coded, so using last frame cost indications as a limiting factor can never be right. Here, I've rewritten that code to estimate costings based partially on statistics from progress on current frame encoding. Overall, this gives us a ~0.2%-0.3% improvement over what we had previously before my argument-inversion-fix, and thus about ~0.4% over current git (on derf-set), and a little more (0.5-1.0%) on HD/STD-HD/YT.

2012-04-12a set of minor fixesYaowu Xu
This commit tries to address an issue related to the oddity shown on HD _mobcal clip, where some rather ugly blocks shown in the second frame at low-mid bit rates if the third frame is not made a key frame by he encoder. The fixes include: 1) made calls to sad_16x16 to be consistent with function prototype. 2) remove the error bias to intra and golden in mbgraph search. 3) changed the error accumulation on inter_segment encoding to avoid potential out-of-range. 1) has no effect on encoding results. Encoding test show that the overall effect of the commit helps about .2%(HD) to .3%(cif) Change-Id: I930975a2d0c06252f01c39e0a02351529774e30b
2012-04-11Superblock encoding orderAdrian Grange
This is the first patch to add superblock (32x32) coding order capabilities. It does not yet do any mode selection at the SB level, that will follow in a further patch. This patch encodes rows of SBs rather than MBs, each SB contains 2x2 MBs. Two intra prediction modes have been disabled since they require reconstructed data for the above-right MB which may not have been encoded yet (e.g. for the bottom right MB in each SB). Results on the one test clip I have tried (720p GIPS clip) suggest that it is somewhere around 0.2dB worse than the baseline version, so there may be bugs. It has been tested with no experiments enabled and with the following 3 experiments enabled: --enable-enhanced_interp --enable-high_precision_mv --enable-sixteenth_subpel_uv in each case the decode buffer matches the recon buffer (using "cmp" to compare the dumped/decoded frames). Note: Testing these experiments individually created errors. Some problems were found with other experiments but it is unclear what state these experiments are in: --enable-comp_intra_pred --enable-newentropy --enable-uvintra This code has not been extensively tested yet, so there is every likelihood that further bugs remain. I also intend to do some code cleanup & refactoring in tandem with the next patch that adds the 32x32 modes. Change-Id: I1eba7f740a70b3510df58db53464535ef881b4d9

2012-02-28Initial refactoring of high_precision mv code.Deb Mukherjee
This is the first patch for refactoring of the code related to high-precision mv, so that 1/4 and 1/8 pel motion vectors can co-exist in the same bit-stream by use of a frame level flag. The current patch works fine for only use of 1/4th and only use of 1/8th pel mv, but there are some issues with the mode switching in between. Subsequent patches on this change Id will fix the remaining issues. Patch 2: Adds fixes to make sure that multiple mv precisions can co-exist in the bit-stream. Frame level switching has been tested to work correctly. Patch 3: Fixes lines exceeding 80 char Patch 4: http://www.corp.google.com/~debargha/vp8_results/enhinterp.html Results on derf after ssse3 bugfix, compared to everything enabled but the 8-tap, 1/8-subpel and 1/16-subpel uv. Overall the gains are about 3% now. Hopefully there are no more bugs lingering. Apparently the sse3 bug affected the quartel subpel results more than the eighth pel ones (which is understandabale because one bad predictor due to the bug, matters less if there are a lot more subpel options available as in the 1/8 subpel case). The results in the 4th column correspond to the current settings. The first two columns correspond to two settings of adaptive switching of the 1/4 or 1/8 subpel mode based on initial Q estimate. These do not work as good as just using 1/8 all the time yet. Change-Id: I3ef392ad338329f4d68a85257a49f2b14f3af472
2012-02-03Reference frame prediction:Paul Wilkins
Extended prediction and coding of reference frame where a subset of options are flagged as available at the segment level. Updated copyright notices. Switch to SAD in mbgraph code as SATD problematic for the foreground and background separation as it can ignore large DC shifts. Change-Id: I661dbbb2f94f3ec0f96bb928c1655e5e415a7de1
2012-01-26Adds support for enhanced interpolation for subpel motionDeb Mukherjee
using an 8-tap filter. The results with 3 different 8-tap filters on the derf set are in: http://www.corp.google.com/~debargha/vp8_results/enhinterp.html The one that gives the most gain achieves an overall gain of about 0.6%. The results for a set of 12 hd (720p) videos are in: http://www.corp.google.com/~debargha/vp8_results/enhinterp_hd.html with max gain of 0.55% with the same filter. The best filter apparently achieves the best trade-off between pass band ripple and stop band attenuation. Change-Id: I919e28ae245c0493147fa0864f8c9d048a9dd530

2012-01-17Rate control on static scenes plus Y2dc delta Q fix.Paul Wilkins
A problem can arise on static clips with force key frames where attempts to avoid popping lead to a progressive reduction in key frame Q that ultimately may lead to unexpected overspend against the rate target. The changes in this patch help to insure that in such clips the quality of the key frames across the clip is more uniform (rather than starting bad and getting better - especially at low target rates). This patch also includes a fix that removes a delta on the Y2DC when the baseline q index < 4 as this is no longer needed. There is also a fix to try and prevent repeat single step Q adjustment in the recode loop leading to lots of recodes, especially where the use of forced skips as part of segmentation has made the impact of Q on the number of bits generated much smaller. Patch 2: Amend "last_boosted_qindex" calculation for arf overlay frames. Change-Id: Ia1feeb79ed8ed014e4239994fcf5e58e68fd9459

2011-12-09Fix out of bounds read in update_mbgraph_frame_statsAdrian Grange
update_mbgraph_frame_stats used xd->mode_info_context before it had been setup, resulting in potentially random accesses of uninitialized memory. This fix allocates a local MODE_INFO structure to hold the data generated in the function. Change-Id: Ic9e75610008ce0e2d690e8e583c21582fee6fc45

2011-10-24Segmentation Features;Paul Wilkins
Only encode sign bit for feature data that can have a sign. Tweaks to the test segmentation rules so that it now actually gives a net benefit on the derf set of about 0.4% though much higher on some clips at the low end. Change-Id: I8e61f1aebf41c9037db7e67e2f8975aa18a0c986
2011-10-24Further segment feature extensions.Paul Wilkins
This quite large check in includes the following: Merge in some code from Ronald (mbgraph.c) that scans a Gf/arf group. This is used as a basis for a simple segmentation for the normal frames in a gf/arf group. This code also uses satd functions from Yaowu. Adds functionality for coding the latest possible position of an EOB for blocks in the segment. (Currently 0-15 only, hence just for 4x4 dct). Where the EOB position is 0 this acts like "skip" and the normal coding of skip at the per mb level is disabled. Added functions (seg_common.c) for setting and reading segment feature elements. These may want to be optimized away at some point but while the mecahnism is in a state of flux they provide a single location for making changes and keep things a bit cleaner. This is still proof of concept code. Currently the tested feature set:- Quantizer, Loop Filter level, Reference frame, Prediction Mode, EOB end stop. TBD:- Add functions for setting and reading the feature data with range and validity checking. Handling of signed and unsigned feature data. At the moment all is assumed to be signed and a sign bit is coded but many cannot be negative. Correct handling of EOB feature with intra coded blocks. Testing/trapping of legal/illegal ref frame and mode combinations. Transform size switch plus merge and test with 8c8 DCT work Merge and test with Sumans Segmenation coding optimizations Change-Id: Iee12e83661c7abbd1e0ce6810915eb4ec35e2d8e
