The example encoder down-samples the input video frames a number of
times with a down-sampling factor, and then encodes and outputs
bitstreams with different resolutions.
Support arbitrary down-sampling factor, and down-sampling factor
can be different for each encoding level.
For example, the encoder can be tested as follows.
1. Configure with multi-resolution encoding enabled:
../libvpx/configure --target=x86-linux-gcc --disable-codecs
--enable-vp8 --enable-runtime_cpu_detect --enable-debug
--disable-install-docs --enable-error-concealment
--enable-multi-res-encoding
2. Run make
3. Encode:
If input video is 1280x720, run:
./vp8_multi_resolution_encoder 1280 720 input.yuv 1.ivf 2.ivf 3.ivf 1
(output: 1.ivf(1280x720); 2.ivf(640x360); 3.ivf(320x180).
The last parameter is set to 1/0 to show/not show PSNR.)
4. Decode:
./simple_decoder 1.ivf 1.yuv
./simple_decoder 2.ivf 2.yuv
./simple_decoder 3.ivf 3.yuv
5. View video:
mplayer 1.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=1280:h=720 -loop 0 -fps 30
mplayer 2.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=640:h=360 -loop 0 -fps 30
mplayer 3.yuv -demuxer rawvideo -rawvideo w=320:h=180 -loop 0 -fps 30
The encoding parameters can be modified in vp8_multi_resolution_encoder.c,
for example, target bitrate, frame rate...
Modified API. John helped a lot with that. Thanks!

to the dqcoeff or qcoeff buffer. The encoder would
populate the dc coeffs of the y blocks as a separate
stage (recon_dcblock) and the decoder would use a special
version of the idct. This change eliminates the extra copy
and reduces the code footprint.
[Tero] Added needed changes to armv6 and NEON assembly.

API was not returning correct partition sizes on arm targets.
The armv5 token packing functions were not storing the information to the
partition size table.
As a fix, have one boolcoder instance allocated for each partition so
that partition sizes are internally available after all partitions
were encoded. This will also allow more flexibility in producing
several partitions in parallel.
Use buffer validation (overflow check) in all ARM bitpacking
functions.

There was an implicit reference frame test order (typically LAST,
GOLD, ARF) in the mode selection logic, but this doesn't provide the
expected results when some reference frames are disabled. For
instance, in real-time mode, the speed selection logic often disables
the ARF modes. So if the user disables the LAST and GOLD frames, the
encoder was always choosing INTRA, when in reality searching the ARF
in this case has the same speed penalty as searching LAST would have
had.
Instead, introduce the notion of a reference frame search order. This
patch preserves the former priorities, so if a frame is disabled, the
other frames bump up a slot to take its place. This patch lays the
groundwork for doing something smarter in the frame test order, for
example considering temporal distance or looking at the frames used by
nearby blocks.

The calculated frame_rate is a state variable in the codec, and
shouldn't be maintained in the configuration struct. Move it to the
main part of cpi so that it isn't clobbered when the configuration
struct is updated. The initial framerate estimate is moved from the
vp8_cx_iface.c wrapper into the body of init_config() in onyx_if.c, so
that it is only called once and not reset on every call to
vp8_change_config().

Call the idct/add after the tokenize. This is WIP with
the goal of creating a common idct/add for the encoder and
decoder. This move is necessary because the decoder's version
of the idct clobbers qcoeff, which is used by the tokenize.

Added code to clip the buffer level to the maximum buffer
size. Without this the buffer level would increase
unchecked.
This bug was found when encoding an essentially static
scene at 2Mb/s. The encoder is unable to generate frames
consistent with the high data-rate because Q bottoms out
at Qmin.
As frames generated are consistently undersized the buffer
level increases and does not get checked against the
maximum size specified by the user (or default).
