Bug relating to issue:- http://b/25090786
base_frame_target is supposed to track the idealized bit
allocation based on error score and not the actual bits
allocated to each frame.
The clamping of this value based on the VBR min and max pct values
was causing a bug where in some cases the loop that adjusts the
active max quantizer for each GF group was running out of bits at
the end of a KF group. This caused a spike in Q and some ugly artifacts.
A second change makes sure that the calculation of the active
Q range for a group DOES, however, take account of clamping.

From Change Ibf0c30b72074b3f71918ab278ccccc02a95a70a0
There is still an issue relating to one animated test clip with repeat
patterns where this change effectively increase the default maximum
arf interval by +1. This can be examined seperately.

Change speed features / behavior for split mode when there
is an internal active edge (e.g. formatting bars).
Remove some threshold constraints in rd code near the active
edge of the image.
Add some plumbing for left and right active edge detection.
Patch set 5. Limit rd pass through for sub 8x8 to internal active edges.
This takes away any speed penalty for most clips but keeps the enhanced
edge coding for the more critical case of internal image edges

Adds two new vp9 parameters --min-gf-interval and --max-gf-interval
to enable testing based on frequency of alt-ref frames.
Also adds a unit-test to test enforcement of min-gf-interval.
For both these parameters the default value is 0, which indicates
they are picked by the encoder, based on resolution and framerate
considerations. If they are greater than zero, the specified
parameter is honored.
(Additional note by paulwilkins)
Note that there is a slight oddity in that key frames are also GFs and
considered part of GF only group. However they are treated as not
being part of an arf group because for arf groups the previous GF is
assumed to be the terminal or overlay frame for the previous group.

Some initial experiments into discounting dead zone
formating bars and intra skip blocks (common in some
types of animation and graphics) in the calculation of
the active max Q for each ARF/GF group.
TODO: check for vertical formating bars and validate the
horizontal bar at the bottom edge of the image.
As expected, this change as it stands, does not make much
difference for the natural videos in the std-hd and derf sets.
However, for the yt and yt hd set there is a significant rise
in the average PSNR with overall PSNR and SSIM remaining
neutral.
The mean rise for the YT-HD test set was > 6%. This is mainly
because the change allows Q to drop further on titles and
other graphics sections where spending a small number of
extra bits gives a sharp rise in PSNR.

For content that is identified as likely to contain some
animation or graphics content, increase the availability
of split modes for good quality speeds 1-3.
On a problem test animation clip this improves metrics
results by about 0.25 db and makes a noticeable difference
visually. It also causes a small drop in file size (~0.5%) but
a rise in encode time of about 5-6% at speed 2.
For more normal content it should have no effect.

Adds code to detect dead zone bars at the top and bottom
of reformatted letterbox video (note that the code only
looks at the top of the image and assumes any dead zone
is symmetrical). Use of this to adapt rate control etc.
will follow in a subsequent patch.
Also counts other blocks (excluding the dead zone) that
have no intra signal. The presence of a significant
number of such blocks can be used as a identify that the frame
may be artificial (e.g. animation, screen capture, graphics).
This patch contains plumbing only and does not use
the signal.

This patch addresses two issues that can occur when the
encoder chooses to use a mixture of ARF and GF groups.
The first issue relates to a failure to reset the "ARF active" flag
correctly when transitioning from coding ARF groups to coding
GF groups. This caused some golden frames to be encoded
with an incorrect bit rate target as if they were ARF overlay frames.
The second issue relates to the encoding of a single short GF group
just before a key frame. Where the last group before a key frame
is an ARF group we expect the final frame before the key frame to
be an low data rate overlay frame. However, when the last group
is a GF group, the final frame before the key frame should be a normal
frame with a normal bit allocation. This issue had the potential to cause
a single poorly coded frame just before a key frame. If that key frame
were a forced key frame rather than a real scene cut, this might cause
pulsing.

Previously limit on max interval set to 0.5 seconds.
Though this helped some low frame rate material it
appears to be a bit too aggressive for some 24 and 25 fps
content. This patch relaxes the limit to 0.75 seconds.
The patch also adds a new minimum interval variable
to replace the current hard wired value. This allows us
to impose a limit on the maximum number of primary
arfs per second for high frame rate (e.g. 50 & 60fps)
content. This is to address concerns regarding playback
performance on some platforms if there is a high base
frame rate and very frequent arfs.

The existing test was triggering a lot of false positives on some types
of animated material with very plain backgrounds. These were triggering
code designed to catch key frames in letter box format clips.
This patch tightens up the criteria and imposes a minimum requirement
on the % blocks coded intra in the first pass and the ratio between the
% coded intra and the modified inter % after discounting neutral (flat)
blocks that are coded equally well either way.
On a particular problem animation clip this change eliminated a large
number of false positives including some cases where the old code
selected kf several times in a row. Marginal false negatives are less
damaging typically to compression and in the problem clip there are now
a couple of cases where "visual" scene cuts are ignored because of well
correlated content across the scene cut.
Replaced some magic numbers related to this with #defines and added
explanatory comments.

This patch limits the maximum arf interval length to
approximately half a second. In some low fps animations in
particular the existing code was selecting an overly long interval
which was hurting visual quality. For a sample problem test clip
(360P animation , 15fps, ~200Kbit/s) this change also improved
metrics by >0.5 db.
There may be some clips where this hurts metrics a little, but the
worst case impact visually is likely to be less than having an
interval that is much too long. On more normal material at 24
fps or higher, the impact is likely to be nil/minimal.

Set the GF group adaptive max Q compile flag to 1 by default.
This change has a quite big visual impact in some clips and also
contributes to tighter rate control.
For short test clips that have consistent content the impact is
quite small on metrics but for more varied long form clips there is
a drop in overal psnr but a sharp rise in average psnr caused by
greater expenditure on some easier sections and tighter rate clipping
in hard sections.
In chunck'ed encodes some of the effect will already be present due
to the independent rate control in each chunk but this change takes
the control down to a smaller scale.

Revised adjustment for rd based on source complexity.
Two cases:
1) Bias against low variance intra predictors
when the actual source variance is higher.
2) When the source variance is very low to give a slight
bias against predictors that might introduce false texture
or features.
The impact on metrics of this change across the test sets is
small and mixed.

std hd -0.093%, -0.1%, -0.557%

This patch accounts in the first pass stats for blocks that
while not coded as intra, are complex and have an intra error /
best error ratio below a threshold.
The modification shortens the GF arf interval for a particular
class of content that contains a lot of blocks matching the
above criteria. (In one short problem test sequence the average
interval dropped from about 14-15 to 10-11)
The change results in small net gains in metrics results for the
Yt(~0.2%) and yt-hd (~0.5%) sets and is approximately neutral
for the other test sets.
The change is currently shielded by a flag and off by default
pending verification that it does not cause other regressions
in tests on a wider YT test set.

Frame buffers are now allocated dynamically on-demand.
Entries in the reference frame map, cm->ref_frame_map,
may now be set to -1 (INVALID_IDX) to indicate that
there is not a valid reference buffer in that "slot".
All slots in the reference frame map are now initialized
to the empty state (-1) and each buffer is initialized
to have a reference count of 0.

When GF group adaptive maxQ is enabled this patch accounts
somewhat for accumulated error in the rate control.
This improves accuracy quite a bit on many clips especially
when there is overshoot.
Examples when the overshoot and undershoot command line
parameters are set to 100:
Hall @ 1200 overshoot is reduced from 67-24%.
Akiyo @ 400 undershoot is reduced from 28%-15%.
Setting a lower value for undershoot or overshoot still
reduces the error further.
Impact on metrics is mixed with some gains in average psnr
but generally a little lower (e.g. 0.5%) on overall and ssim.
The GF group adaptation is still off by default in this patch.
Compared to with the head, enabling this mode now gives
big average psnr gains on the YT sets (e.g. YT_HD >11.2%),
a drop in overall PSNR (YT-HD 3.9%) and a smaller drop or
neutral for SSIM.

Note: This feature is still in development.
Add an option for the encoder to decide the resolution
at which to encode each frame.
Each KF/GF/ARF goup is tested to see if it would be
better encoded at a lower resolution. At present, each
KF/GF/ARF is coded first at full-size and if the coded
size exceeds a threshold (twice target data rate) at
the maximum active Q then the entire group is encoded
at lower resolution.
This feature is enabled in vpxenc by setting:
--resize-allowed=1
In addition, if the vpxenc command line also specifies
valid frame dimensions using:
--resize-width=XXXX & --resize_height=YYYY
then *all* frames will be encoded at this resolution.

In frame parallel decode, libvpx decoder decodes several frames on all
cpus in parallel fashion. If not being flushed, it will only return frame
when all the cpus are busy. If getting flushed, it will return all the
frames in the decoder. Compare with current serial decode mode in which
libvpx decoder is idle between decode calls, libvpx decoder is busy
between decode calls.
Current frame parallel decode will only speed up the decoding for frame
parallel encoded videos. For non frame parallel encoded videos, frame
parallel decode is slower than serial decode due to lack of loopfilter
worker thread.
There are still some known issues that need to be addressed. For example:
decode frame parallel videos with segmentation enabled is not right sometimes.
