Changelog for flac-devel-32bit-1.4.3-1.4.x86_64.rpm :

* Fri Jun 23 2023 Antonio Larrosa - Update to version 1.4.3: + General
* All PowerPC-specific code has been removed, as it turned out those improvements didn\'t actually improve anything
* Large improvements in encoder speed for all presets. The largest change is for the fastest presets and for 24-bit and 32-bit inputs.
* Small improvement in decoder speed for BMI2-capable CPUs
* Various documentation fixes and cleanups
* Various fixes
* Fix building on Universal Windows Platform + flac
* A lot of small fixes for bugs found by fuzzing
* Various improvements to the --keep-foreign-metadata and - -keep-foreign-metadata-if-present options on decoding + The output format (WAV/AIFF/RF64 etc.) is now automatically selected based on what kind of foreign metadata is stored + Decoded file is checked afterwards, to see whether stored foreign format data agrees with FLAC audio properties + AIFF-C sowt data can now be restored
* Add --force-legacy-wave-format option, to decode to WAV with WAVEFORMATPCM where WAVE_FORMAT_EXTENSIBLE would be more appropriate
* Add --force-aiff-c-none-format and --force-aiff-c-sowt-format to decode to AIFF-C
* The storage of WAVEFORMATEXTENSIBLE_CHANNEL_MASK is no longer restricted to known channel orderings
* Throw an error when WAV or AIFF files are over 4GiB in length and the --ignore-chunk-sizes option is not set
* Warn on testing files when ID3v2 tags are found
* Warn when data trails the audio data of a WAV/AIFF/RF64/W64 file
* Fix output file not being deleted after error on Windows
* Removal of the --sector--align option + metaflac
* A lot of small fixes for bugs found by fuzzing
* Added options --append and --data-format, which makes it possible to copy metadata blocks from one FLAC file to another
* Added option --remove-all-tags-except
* Added option --show-all-tags + libFLAC
* No longer write seektables to Ogg, even when specifically asked for. Seektables in Ogg are not defined
* Add functions FLAC__metadata_object_set_raw and FLAC__metadata_object_get_raw to convert between blob and FLAC__StreamMetadata + Build system
* Autoconf (configure): The option --enable-64-bit-words is now on by default
* CMake: The option ENABLE_64_BIT_WORDS is now on by default + Testing/validation
* Fuzzers were added for the flac and metaflac command line tools
* Fuzzer coverage was improved- Changed source to github link since it wasn\'t released in the xiph page.

* Remove all pure assembler, removing build dependency on nasm
* Made console output more uniform across different platforms and CPUs
* Improve ability to tune compile for a certain system (for example with -march=native) when combining with - -disable-asm-optimizations: plain C functions can now be better optimized + Build system
* Default CFLAGS are now prepended instead of dropped when user CFLAGS are set
* -msse2 is no longer added by default (was only applicable to x86)
* Fix cross-compiling and out-of-tree building when pandoc and doxygen are not available
* Fix issue with Clang not compiling functions with intrinsics
* Fix detection of bswap intrinsics (Ozkan Sezer)
* Improve search for libssp on MinGW (Ozkan Sezer, Martijn van Beurden) + libFLAC
* Fix issue when the libFLAC user seeks in a file instead of libFLAC itself- Drop obsoleted flac-cflags.patch
* Fri Sep 23 2022 Paolo Stivanin - Update to version 1.4.1:
* CMake fixes
* Add checks that man pages and api docs end up in tarball
* Enable installation of prebuilt man pages and api docs
* Fix compiler warnings
* Fix format specifier
* Fix versioning from git- Rebase flac-cflags.patch
* Sun Sep 11 2022 Bjørn Lie - Update to version 1.4.0: + General:
* It is now possible to limit the minimum bitrate of a FLAC file generated by libFLAC and with the flac tool to 1 bit/sample. This function can be used to aid live streaming, for example for internet radio
* Encoding files with sample rates up to 1\'048\'575Hz is now possible.
* Compression of preset -3 through -8 was slightly improved at the cost of a small decrease in encoding speed by increasing the precision with which autocorrelation was calculated
* Encoding speed of preset -0, -1 and -2 was slightly improved
* Compression of presets -1 and -4 was slighly improved on certain material by changing the adaptive mid-side heuristics
* Speedups specifically targeting 64-bit ARMv8 devices using NEON were integrated
* Speedups for x86_64 CPUs having the FMA instruction set extention are added
* Encoding and decoding of 32-bit PCM is now possible + (Ogg) FLAC format:
* The FLAC format document is being rewritten by the IETF CELLAR working group. The latest draft can be found on https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/draft-ietf-cellar-flac/
* The FLAC format document specifies no bounds for the residual. In other to match current decoder implementations, it is proposed to bound the residual to the range provided by a 32-bit int signed two\'s complement. This limit must be checked by FLAC encoders as to keep FLAC decoders free from the complexity of being to decode a residual exceeding a 32-bit int.
* There is now a set of files available to test whether a FLAC decoder implements the format correctly. This FLAC decoder testbench can be found at https://github.com/ietf-wg-cellar/flac-test-files. Also, results of testing hard- and software can be found here at https://wiki.hydrogenaud.io/index.php?title=FLAC_decoder_testbench. + flac:
* The option --limit-min-bitrate was added to aid streaming, see github #264
* The option --keep-foreign-metadata-if-present is added. This option works the same as --keep-foreign-metadata, but does return a warning instead of an error if no foreign metadata was found to store or restore
* The warning returned by the foreign metadata handling is now clearer in case a user tries to restore foreign metadata of the wrong type, for example decoding a FLAC file containing AIFF foreign metadata to a WAV file
* A problem when using the analyse function causing the first frame to have a wrong size and offset was fixed
* Fix bug where channel mask of a file is unintentionally reused when several files are processed with one command
* The order of compression-related commands is no longer important, i.e. -8ep gives the same result as -ep8. Previously, a compression level (like -8) would override a more specific setting (like -e or -p). This is no longer the case
* flac now checks the block-align property of WAV files to ensure non-standard WAV files (for which flac has no handling) are not mangled + build system:
* MSVC and Makefile.lite build system files have been removed. Building with MSVC (Visual Studio) can be done by using CMake
* Various CMake improvements, especially for creating MSVC build files
* Various fixes for MinGW
* Removed obsolete autotools macro\'s to silence warnings
* Fixes for FreeBSD PowerPC
* Fixed some compiler warnings
* Fix building with uclibc + testing/validation:
* Addition of new encoder fuzzer, adding fuzzing for 8, 24 and 32-bit inputs
* Addition of new decoder fuzzer, adding coverage of seeking code
* Addition of metadata fuzzer, adding coverage of metadata APIs
* Various improvements to fuzzers to improve code coverage, fuzzing speed and stability
* Many changes to test suite to improve cross-platform compatibility
* Windows CI now also builds the whole test suite
* Clang-format file added
* Add warning on using v141_xp platform toolset with /MT + libraries:
* Various seeking fixes
* Various bugs fixed found by fuzzing
* On decoding, it is now checked whether residuals can be contained by a 32-bit int, preventing integer overflow
* Add check that samples supplied to libFLAC actually fall within the bps set
* Add checks when parsing metadata blocks to not allocate excessive amounts of memory and not overread
* Undocumented Windows-only utf8 functions are no longer exported to the DLL interface
* Removed all assembler and intrinsics code from the decoder to improve fuzzing, as they provided only a small speed benefit
* The bitwriter buffer is limited in size to 2^24 bytes, so it cannot write excessively large files. This is a backup in case another bug in this area creeps (back) in.
* The metadata iterations should now never return a vorbiscomment entry with NULL as an entry, now always at least an empty string is returned + documentation: Removed html documentation and generate man pages from markdown + Interface changes:
* libFLAC: . Addition of FLAC__stream_encoder_set_limit_min_bitrate() and FLAC__stream_encoder_get_limit_min_bitrate(), see github #264 . get_client_data_from_decoder is renamed FLAC__get_decoder_client_data(), see github #124 . All API functions taking a filename as an argument now take UTF-8 filenames on Windows, and no longer accept filenames using the current codepage . FLAC__Frame struct has changed: warmup samples are now stored in FLAC__int64 instead of FLAC__int32 types, and verbatim samples can now be stored in either FLAC__int32 or FLAC__int64 depending on whether samples fix the former or latter . The FLAC__StreamMetadata struct now has a tag, so it can be forward declared
* libFLAC++: . Addition of ::set_limit_min_bitrate() and ::get_limit_min_bitrate(), see github #264 . All API functions taking a filename as an argument now take UTF-8 filenames on Windows, and no longer accept filenames using the current codepage . The ::FLAC__Frame struct has changed, see the libFLAC interface change.- Rebase flac-cflags.patch with quilt.- Drop patch fixed differently upstream, see github #329 + 0001-Revert-libFLAC-stream_decoder.c-Use-current-position.patch- Bump sonames following upstream changes (also in baselibs.conf).- Add sover and sover_plus defines, ease future soname bumps.- Use ldconfig_scriptlets macro for post(un) handling.- Use make_build macro.- Update Git-Web and Git-Clone urls to new home on github.- Replace gcc-c++ BuildRequires with generic c++_compiler and c_compiler BuildRequires: Package needs a c and c++ compiler, not explicitly gcc-c++.
* Tue Mar 01 2022 tiwaiAATTsuse.de- Fix the regression for audiofile, reverting the problematic change 0001-Revert-libFLAC-stream_decoder.c-Use-current-position.patch
