Changelog for x265-debugsource-1.7-1.1.x86_64.rpm :
Fri May 29 14:00:00 2015 aloisioAATTgmx.com
- soname bump to 59
- Update to version 1.7

* large amount of assembly code optimizations

* some preliminary support for high dynamic range content

* improvements for multi-library support

* some new quality features
(full documentation at: http://x265.readthedocs.org/en/1.7)

* This release simplifies the multi-library support introduced
in version 1.6. Any libx265 can now forward API requests to
other installed libx265 libraries (by name) so applications
like ffmpeg and the x265 CLI can select between 8bit and 10bit
encodes at runtime without the need of a shim library or
library load path hacks. See --output-depth, and
http://x265.readthedocs.org/en/1.7/api.html#multi-library-interface

* For quality, x265 now allows you to configure the quantization
group size smaller than the CTU size (for finer grained AQ
adjustments). See --qg-size.

* x265 now supports limited mid-encode reconfigure via a new public
method: x265_encoder_reconfig()

* For HDR, x265 now supports signaling the SMPTE 2084 color transfer
function, the SMPTE 2086 mastering display color primaries, and the
content light levels. See --master-display, --max-cll

* x265 will no longer emit any non-conformant bitstreams unless
- -allow-non-conformance is specified.

* The x265 CLI now supports a simple encode preview feature. See
- -recon-y4m-exec.

* The AnnexB NAL headers can now be configured off, via x265_param.bAnnexB
This is not configurable via the CLI because it is a function of the
muxer being used, and the CLI only supports raw output files. See
- -annexb
Misc:

* --lossless encodes are now signaled as level 8.5

* --profile now has a -P short option

* The regression scripts used by x265 are now public, and can be found at:
https://bitbucket.org/sborho/test-harness

* x265\'s cmake scripts now support PGO builds, the test-harness can be
used to drive the profile-guided build process.

- soname bumped to 51
- Update to stable version 1.6
Perfomance changes:

* heavy improvements for AVX2 capable platforms
(Haswell and later Intel CPUs) and work efficiency
improvements for multiple-socket machines.
API changes:

* --threads N replaced by --pools N,N and --lookahead-slices N

* --[no-]rdoq-level N - finer control over RDOQ effort

* --min-cu-size N - trade-off compression for performance

* --max-tu-size N - trade-off compression for performance

* --[no-]temporal-layers - code unreferenced B frames in temporal
layer 1

* --[no-]cip aliases added for --[no-]constrained-intra

* Added support for new color transfer functions \"smpte-st-2084\"
and \"smpte-st-428

* --limit-refs N was added, but not yet implemented

* Deprecated x265_setup_primitives() was removed from the public
API and is no longer exported DLLs
Threading changes:

* The x265 thread pool has been made NUMA aware.

* The --threads parameter, which used to specify a global
pool size, has been replaced with a --pools parameter which
allows you to specify a pool size per NUMA node (aka CPU socket
or package). The default is still to allocate one pool worker
thread per logical core on the machine, but with --pools one
can isolate those threads to a given socket.

* Other than socket isolation, the biggest visible change in the
NUMA aware thread pools is the increase in work efficiency.
The total utilization will generally decrease but the performance
will increase since worker threads spend less time context
switching. Also, the threading of the lookahead was made more
work-efficient. Each lookahead job is a much larger piece of work.
Before (1.5):
disable thread pool: --threads 1
default thread pool: --threads 0
restrict to 4 threads: --threads 4
After (1.6):
disable thread pools: --pools 0
default thread pools: --pools
*
restrict to 4 threads: --pools 4
restrict to 4 threads on socket 1: --pools -,4
restrict to all threads on socket 0: --pools +,-
Multi-lib interface:

* In order to support runtime selection of a libx265
shared library, we have introduced an x265_api structure
and an x265_api_get() function. Applications which use
this interface to acquire the libx265 functional interface
will be able to use shim libraries to bind a particular build
of libx265 at run time. See the API documentation for full
details.

- soname bump
- Update to stable version 1.5

* improvements in Main10 compression efficiency and performance
and psycho-visual optimizations now enabled by default
Feature additions:

* analysis re-use features have been completed

* rate control zones have been introduced

* --tune grain introduced

* deblocking tC and Beta offsets are now configurable

* denoise is seperately configurable for inter and intra CUs

* frame based CSV logging has been improved

* New support for VTune task profiles
Presets and defaults:

* ultrafast no longer disables the deblocking loop filter

* psy-rd defaults to 0.3 (was 0, disabled)

* psy-rdoq defaults to 1.0 (was 0, disabled)

* aq-mode defaults to 1 (was 2, auto-variance)

* 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 encodes no longer generate compliance warnings
API changes:

* param.rc.rateTolerance has been removed and replaced with a simpler
param.rc.bStrictCbr flag.

* --log-level debug is now --log-level 4 instead of --log-level 3.
A new \'frame\' log level was inserted at level 3 in order to support
frame level CSV logging without also enabling frame level console
logging. Using the string name \'debug\' is unambiguous as its
behavior has not changed.
- version 1.4

* large refactoring in the analysis code
Feature additions:

* --pmode (parallel mode decision)

* --pme (parallel motion estimation).
Presets and defaults:

* --amp is now respected in RD levels 2, 3, and 4 (previously only
in 5 and 6).

* --b-intra is now respected in all RD levels.

* --fast-cbf, which has only ever effective at RD levels 5 and 6,
is no longer enabled uselessly in the fastest presets.

* --weightb is now enabled by default at presets slower, veryslow,
and placebo.

* --cu-lossless was changed to only attempt a lossless encode of
the best lossy encode method. This made --cu-lossless a much less
expensive encode option to have enabled, and hopefully made the
feature more robust and maintainable.

* The upper threshold for --psy-rdoq was raised to 50 (from 10)
since the higher values were found to be beneficial for sources
with high frequency noise (film grain).

* The default thread pool size logic was updated to account for the
addition of --pmode and --pme (if WPP is disabled but --pmode or
- -pme are enabled, a thread pool is still allocated).

- Ensure we use the proper CXXFLAGS, CFLAGS and therefore
debuginfo packages are generated correctly.
