General notes
|
||||
-------------
|
||||
|
||||
This release features a lot of improvements that are relevant for HTML5 video.
|
||||
The H.264 and Theora decoders are now significantly faster, the vorbis decoder
|
||||
has seen important updates and this release supports Google's newly released
|
||||
libvpx library. Please note that for license reasons, we consider binaries of
|
||||
FFmpeg and libavcodec that are linked against libvpx unredistributable. We are
|
||||
confident that the situation will improve upstream; in this case, we will
|
||||
rectify this issue in a (future) point release.
|
||||
|
||||
Other important changes are additions of decoders for popular codecs as
|
||||
Intel Indeo 5, WMA Pro, WMA Voice and HE-AAC.
|
||||
|
||||
See the Changelog file for a list of significant changes.
