2017-01-04 v1.7.0 "Mandarin Duck"
This release focused on high bit depth performance (10/12 bit) and vp9
encoding improvements.
- Upgrading:
This release is ABI incompatible due to new vp9 encoder features.
Frame parallel decoding for vp9 has been removed.
- Enhancements:
vp9 encoding supports additional threads with --row-mt. This can be greater
than the number of tiles.
Two new vp9 encoder options have been added:
--corpus-complexity
--tune-content=film
Additional tooling for respecting the vp9 "level" profiles has been added.
- Bug fixes:
A variety of fuzzing issues.
vp8 threading fix for ARM.
Codec control VP9_SET_SKIP_LOOP_FILTER fixed.
Reject invalid multi resolution configurations.
