eb8b4d9a99 configure.sh fix for visual studio
-For targets with external build systems like visual
studio CC is not set so check_add_cflags will fail.
Only call this function if extra_cflags is set.

0ee525d6de Added vp8_update_zbin_extra
vp8cx_mb_init_quantizer was being called for every mode checked
in vp8_rd_pick_inter_mode.  zbin_extra is the only value that
really needs to be recalculated.  This calculation is disabled
when using the fast quantizer for mode selection.
This gave a small performance boost (~.5% to 1%).
Note: This needs to be verified with segmentation_enabled.

0cdfef1e22 Modified static scene check.
Added code to scan ahead a few frames when we see what
we think is a static scene in the two pass GF loop to see if the
conditions persist.

8064583d26 Further work to reduce pulsing.
These changes are specifically targeted at fade transitions to
static scenes. Here we want to place a GF/ARF immediately
after the fade and prevent an ARF just  before the fade.

Also some code lines and comment lines shortened to 80 chars
while I was there.

815e1e9fe4 Fixed use of motion percentage in KF/GF group calc
In both vp8_find_next_key_frame and define_gf_group,
motion_pct was initialised at the top of the loop before
next_frame stats had been read in.

This fix sets motion_pct after next_frame stats have
been read.

67fb3a5155 Implement error tracking in the decoder
A new vpx_codec_control called VP8D_GET_FRAME_CORRUPTED. The output
from the function is non-zero if the last decoded frame contains
corruption due to packet losses.

The decoder is also modified to accept encoded frames of zero length.
A zero length frame indicates to the decoder that one or more frames
have been completely lost. This will mark the last decoded reference
buffer as corrupted. The data pointer can be NULL if the length is
zero.

Experimental change to try and match the reconstruction
error for forced key frames approximately to that of the

may cause extra recodes and the recode behavior has not
been optimized, it can only happen on forced key frames.

Previously when a frame was being overlaid on a previously coded
alt ref frame we only checked the alt ref 0,0 mode. Where there is
a possibility that the alt ref buffer is a filtered frame we should allow
the other prediction modes as normal or at the least allow use of
the last frame buffer.

2c1b06e672 ARNR filter pointer update bug fix
In cases where the frame width is not a multiple of 16 the
ARNR filter would go wrong.

In vp8_temporal_filter_iterate_c when updating pointers
at the end of a row of MBs,  the image size was
incorrectly used rather than using Num_MBs_In_Row
times 16 (Y) or 8 (U,V).

This worked when width is multiple of 16 but failed
otherwise.

Paul Wilkins
e0846c9c8c CQ Mode
The merge includes hooks to for CQ mode and other code
changes merged from the test branch.

CQ mode attempts to maintain a more stable quantizer within a clip
whilst also trying to adhere to a guidline maximum bitrate.

The existing target data rate parameter is used to specify the
guideline maximum bitrate.

A new parameter allows the user to specify a target CQ level.

For normal (non kf/gf/arf) frames, the quantizer will not drop BELOW the
user specified value (0-63). However, in some cases the encoder may
choose to impose a target CQ that is above that specified by the user,
if it estimates that consistent use of the target value is not compatible
with guideline maximum bitrate.

3af3593c8e Limit Q variability in two pass.
In two pass encoding each frame is given an active
Q range to work with. This change limits how much this
Q range can be altered over time from the initial estimate
made for the clip as a whole.

There is some danger this could lead to overshoot or undershoot
in some corner cases but it helps considerably in regard to
clips where either there is a glut or famine of bits in some sections,
particularly near the end of a clip.

1942eeb886 fix last frame buffer copy logic regression
Commit 0ce3901 introduced a change in the frame buffer copy logic where
the NEW frame could be copied to the ARF or GF buffer through the
copy_buffer_to_{arf,gf}==1 flags, if the LAST frame was not being
refreshed. This is not correct. The intent of the
copy_buffer_to_{arf,gf}==1 flag is to copy the LAST buffer. To copy the
NEW buffer, the refresh_{alt_ref,golden}_frame flag should be used.

The original buffer copy logic is fairly convoluted. For example:

    if (cm->refresh_last_frame)
    {
        vp8_swap_yv12_buffer(&cm->last_frame, &cm->new_frame);

        cm->frame_to_show = &cm->last_frame;
    }
    else
    {
        cm->frame_to_show = &cm->new_frame;
    }
    ...
    if (cm->copy_buffer_to_arf)
    {
        if (cm->copy_buffer_to_arf == 1)
        {
            if (cm->refresh_last_frame)
                vp8_yv12_copy_frame_ptr(&cm->new_frame, &cm->alt_ref_frame);
            else
                vp8_yv12_copy_frame_ptr(&cm->last_frame, &cm->alt_ref_frame);
        }
        else if (cm->copy_buffer_to_arf == 2)
            vp8_yv12_copy_frame_ptr(&cm->golden_frame, &cm->alt_ref_frame);
    }

Effectively, if refresh_last_frame, then new and last are swapped, so
when "new" is copied to ARF, it's equivalent to copying LAST to ARF. If
not refresh_last_frame, then LAST is copied to ARF. So LAST is copied to
ARF in both cases.

Commit 0ce3901 removed the first buffer swap but kept the
refresh_last_frame?new:last behavior, changing the sense since the first
swap wasn't done to the more readable refresh_last_frame?last:new, but
this logic is not correct when !refresh_last_frame.

This commit restores the correct behavior from v0.9.1 and prior. This
case is missing from the test vector set.
