WebM Experimental Codec Branch Snapshot This is a code snapshot of experimental work currently ongoing for a next-generation codec. The codebase has been cut down considerably from the libvpx baseline. For example, we are currently only supporting VBR 2-pass rate control and have removed most of the code relating to coding speed, threading, error resilience, partitions and various other features. This is in part to make the codebase easier to work on and experiment with, but also because we want to have an open discussion about how the bitstream will be structured and partitioned and not have that conversation constrained by past work. Our basic working pattern has been to initially encapsulate experiments using configure options linked to #IF CONFIG_XXX statements in the code. Once experiments have matured and we are reasonably happy that they give benefit and can be merged without breaking other experiments, we remove the conditional compile statements and merge them in. Current changes include: * Temporal coding experiment for segments (though still only 4 max, it will likely be increased). * Segment feature experiment - to allow various bits of information to be coded at the segment level. Features tested so far include mode and reference frame information, limiting end of block offset and transform size, alongside Q and loop filter parameters, but this set is very fluid. * Support for 8x8 transform - 8x8 dct with 2nd order 2x2 haar is used in MBs using 16x16 prediction modes within inter frames. * Compound prediction (combination of signals from existing predictors to create a new predictor). * 8 tap interpolation filters and 1/8th pel motion vectors. * Loop filter modifications. * Various entropy modifications and changes to how entropy contexts and updates are handled. * Extended quantizer range matched to transform precision improvements. There are also ongoing further experiments that we hope to merge in the near future: For example, coding of motion and other aspects of the prediction signal to better support larger image formats, use of larger block sizes (e.g. 32x32 and up) and lossless non-transform based coding options (especially for key frames). It is our hope that we will be able to make regular updates and we will warmly welcome community contributions. Please be warned that, at this stage, the codebase is currently slower than VP8 stable branch as most new code has not been optimized, and even the 'C' has been deliberately written to be simple and obvious, not fast. The following graphs have the initial test results, numbers in the tables measure the compression improvement in terms of percentage. The build has the following optional experiments configured: --enable-experimental --enable-enhanced_interp --enable-uvintra --enable-high_precision_mv --enable-sixteenth_subpel_uv CIF Size clips: http://getwebm.org/tmp/cif/ HD size clips: http://getwebm.org/tmp/hd/ (stable_20120309 represents encoding results of WebM master branch build as of commit#7a15907) They were encoded using the following encode parameters: --good --cpu-used=0 -t 0 --lag-in-frames=25 --min-q=0 --max-q=63 --end-usage=0 --auto-alt-ref=1 -p 2 --pass=2 --kf-max-dist=9999 --kf-min-dist=0 --drop-frame=0 --static-thresh=0 --bias-pct=50 --minsection-pct=0 --maxsection-pct=800 --sharpness=0 --arnr-maxframes=7 --arnr-strength=3(for HD,6 for CIF) --arnr-type=3 Change-Id: I5c62ed09cfff5815a2bb34e7820d6a810c23183c

32x32 transform for superblocks. This adds Debargha's DCT/DWT hybrid and a regular 32x32 DCT, and adds code all over the place to wrap that in the bitstream/encoder/decoder/RD. Some implementation notes (these probably need careful review): - token range is extended by 1 bit, since the value range out of this transform is [-16384,16383]. - the coefficients coming out of the FDCT are manually scaled back by 1 bit, or else they won't fit in int16_t (they are 17 bits). Because of this, the RD error scoring does not right-shift the MSE score by two (unlike for 4x4/8x8/16x16). - to compensate for this loss in precision, the quantizer is halved also. This is currently a little hacky. - FDCT and IDCT is double-only right now. Needs a fixed-point impl. - There are no default probabilities for the 32x32 transform yet; I'm simply using the 16x16 luma ones. A future commit will add newly generated probabilities for all transforms. - No ADST version. I don't think we'll add one for this level; if an ADST is desired, transform-size selection can scale back to 16x16 or lower, and use an ADST at that level. Additional notes specific to Debargha's DWT/DCT hybrid: - coefficient scale is different for the top/left 16x16 (DCT-over-DWT) block than for the rest (DWT pixel differences) of the block. Therefore, RD error scoring isn't easily scalable between coefficient and pixel domain. Thus, unfortunately, we need to compute the RD distortion in the pixel domain until we figure out how to scale these appropriately. Change-Id: I00386f20f35d7fabb19aba94c8162f8aee64ef2b

WebM Experimental Codec Branch Snapshot This is a code snapshot of experimental work currently ongoing for a next-generation codec. The codebase has been cut down considerably from the libvpx baseline. For example, we are currently only supporting VBR 2-pass rate control and have removed most of the code relating to coding speed, threading, error resilience, partitions and various other features. This is in part to make the codebase easier to work on and experiment with, but also because we want to have an open discussion about how the bitstream will be structured and partitioned and not have that conversation constrained by past work. Our basic working pattern has been to initially encapsulate experiments using configure options linked to #IF CONFIG_XXX statements in the code. Once experiments have matured and we are reasonably happy that they give benefit and can be merged without breaking other experiments, we remove the conditional compile statements and merge them in. Current changes include: * Temporal coding experiment for segments (though still only 4 max, it will likely be increased). * Segment feature experiment - to allow various bits of information to be coded at the segment level. Features tested so far include mode and reference frame information, limiting end of block offset and transform size, alongside Q and loop filter parameters, but this set is very fluid. * Support for 8x8 transform - 8x8 dct with 2nd order 2x2 haar is used in MBs using 16x16 prediction modes within inter frames. * Compound prediction (combination of signals from existing predictors to create a new predictor). * 8 tap interpolation filters and 1/8th pel motion vectors. * Loop filter modifications. * Various entropy modifications and changes to how entropy contexts and updates are handled. * Extended quantizer range matched to transform precision improvements. There are also ongoing further experiments that we hope to merge in the near future: For example, coding of motion and other aspects of the prediction signal to better support larger image formats, use of larger block sizes (e.g. 32x32 and up) and lossless non-transform based coding options (especially for key frames). It is our hope that we will be able to make regular updates and we will warmly welcome community contributions.

For example, we are currently only supporting VBR 2-pass rate control and have removed most of the code relating to coding speed, threading, error resilience, partitions and various other features. This is in part to make the codebase easier to work on and experiment with, but also because we want to have an open discussion about how the bitstream will be structured and partitioned and not have that conversation constrained by past work. Our basic working pattern has been to initially encapsulate experiments using configure options linked to #IF CONFIG_XXX statements in the code. Once experiments have matured and we are reasonably happy that they give benefit and can be merged without breaking other experiments, we remove the conditional compile statements and merge them in. Current changes include: * Temporal coding experiment for segments (though still only 4 max, it will likely be increased). * Segment feature experiment - to allow various bits of information to be coded at the segment level. Features tested so far include mode and reference frame information, limiting end of block offset and transform size, alongside Q and loop filter parameters, but this set is very fluid. * Support for 8x8 transform - 8x8 dct with 2nd order 2x2 haar is used in MBs using 16x16 prediction modes within inter frames. * Compound prediction (combination of signals from existing predictors to create a new predictor). * 8 tap interpolation filters and 1/8th pel motion vectors. * Loop filter modifications. * Various entropy modifications and changes to how entropy contexts and updates are handled. * Extended quantizer range matched to transform precision improvements. There are also ongoing further experiments that we hope to merge in the near future: For example, coding of motion and other aspects of the prediction signal to better support larger image formats, use of larger block sizes (e.g. 32x32 and up) and lossless non-transform based coding options (especially for key frames). It is our hope that we will be able to make regular updates and we will warmly welcome community contributions. Please be warned that, at this stage, the codebase is currently slower than VP8 stable branch as most new code has not been optimized, and even the 'C' has been deliberately written to be simple and obvious, not fast. The following graphs have the initial test results, numbers in the tables measure the compression improvement in terms of percentage.
