We had a very complicated way to initialize cpi->pass from
cfg->g_pass:
switch (cfg->g_pass) {
case VPX_RC_ONE_PASS:
oxcf->mode = ONE_PASS_GOOD;
break;
case VPX_RC_FIRST_PASS:
oxcf->mode = TWO_PASS_FIRST;
break;
case VPX_RC_LAST_PASS:
oxcf->mode = TWO_PASS_SECOND_BEST;
break;
}
cpi->pass = get_pass(oxcf->mode).
Now pass is moved to VP9EncoderConfig and initialization is simple:
switch (cfg->g_pass) {
case VPX_RC_ONE_PASS:
oxcf->pass = 0;
break;
case VPX_RC_FIRST_PASS:
oxcf->pass = 1;
break;
case VPX_RC_LAST_PASS:
oxcf->pass = 2;
break;
}

All changes are for spatial svc only.
1. Enable encoding hidden frames in each layer and use alt reference idex to reference the hidden frame in each layer
2. Use golden reference idx for spatial reference
3. For those layers that don't have hidden frames (caused by lack of frame buffers), reference a hidden frame in lower layers
4. Add "auto-alt-refs" in svc options

This reverts commit 59e733ca81.
Hold off removing arnr_type to give users the opportunity
to change their script files to handle its deprecation. A
follow-up patch will mark the control for setting arnr_type
as deprecated and it will be removed completely in a later
revision of the code.

The encoder was not handling requests to place keyframes at
fixed intervals, i.e. kf_min_dist == kf_max_dist, correctly.
In this case when looking to place the next keyframe it was
accumulating stats all the way up to the end of the firstpass
file. This patch corrects this behavior.

ARNR filtering is now forced to be centered on the ARF
frame and the other two options have been removed.
The other modes of constructing the ARNR frame were
not used and there does not seem to be any good
reason to maintain them.
This is purely an encoder-side change.

These two flags are ignored if the "resize-allowed" switch

All frames in the clip are then encoded at this size, which
must be smaller than the raw frame size.

Adds some high-level hooks for profile 2 before further
progress on the implementation.
According to the definitiion in this patch:
1. Profile 2 only supports 10 or 12 bit color but not 8
2. Profile 2 supports all color sampling modes: 444, 422 and 420,
and alpha plane.
3. Profile 3 is currently undefined.

This patch only works if the video is a width and height that are both
a multiple of 32.. It sets every partition to 16x16, and does INTRADC
only on the first frame and ZEROMV on every other frame. It always does
does the largest possible transform, and loop filter level is set to 4.
Was ~20% faster than speed -5 of vp8
Now 20% slower but adds motion search ( every block ), nearest, near
and zeromv
The SVC test was changed because - while this realtime mode produces
bad quality albeit quickly, it isn't obeying all the rules it should
about which frames are available.

SVC multiple layer per frame encoding is invoked with vpx_svc_init and
vpx_svc_encode. These interfaces are designed to be invoked from ffmpeg.
Additional improvements:
- make dummy frame handling a bit more explicit
- fixed bug with single layer encodes
- track individual frame sizes and psnrs instead of averages
- parameterized quantizer, 16th scalefactors, more logging,
- enabled single layer encodes to generate baseline
- include new mode for 3 layer I frame with 5 total layers

Adds modeled functions to decide the qp for altref frames in constant q
mode similar to other functions in use in bitrate mode.
Also turns on the constrained quality mode (end-usage=2) option which
was turned off before. Basic testing shows the mode works in principle,
to cap bitrate to the target-bitrate specified, while allowing lower
bitrate depending on the cq-level specified. The mode will need to be
improved over time.
Results for constant quality vs bitrate control mode:
derfraw300/fullderfraw: +3.0% at constant quality over bitrate control.
fullstdhdraw: +4.341%
stdhdraw250: +5.361%

Adds a new end-usage option for constant quality encoding in vpx. This
first version implemented for VP9, encodes all regular inter frames
using the quality specified in the --cq-level= option, while encoding
all key frames and golden/altref frames at a quality better than that.
The current performance on derfraw300 is +0.910% up from bitrate control,
but achieved without multiple recode loops per frame.
The decision for qp for each altref/golden/key frame will be improved
in subsequent patches based on better use of stats from the first pass.
Further, the qp for regular inter frames may also be varied around the
provided cq-level.
Change-Id: I6c4a2a68563679d60e0616ebcb11698578615fb3
Currently, the best quality mode in VP9 is not very well developed,
and unnecessarily makes the encode too slow. Hence the command line
default is changed to "good" quality. Also, the number of passes
default is changed to 2 passes as well, since 1-pass encoding is
not very efficient in VP9.
Besides, a number of VP9 defaults are set to the currently
recommended settings. With these changes, vpxenc
run with --codec=vp9 --kf-max-dist=9999 --cpu-used=0 should
work about the same as our borg results.
Note when the --cpu-used=0 option is dropped there will be a slight
difference in the output, because of a difference in the cpu-used
value for the first pass. Specifically, the default when unspecified
is to use cpu_used=1 for the first pass and cpu_used=0 for the
second pass. But when specified, both passes will use the cpu-used
value specified.
Note that this also changes the default for VP8 as being "good"
but other options stay unchanged.

This is work-in-progress, it implements multiple ARF
encoding behind an experimental flag.
It adds the ability to insert multiple ARF frames into a
single ARF group. This patch implements the reordering
of the coded frames, and implements a fixed-length coding
pattern. It applies a fixed quantizer strategy based on
where the frame is in the coding sequence.
Further work to modify the rate control strategy is
ongoing and will be submitted via a set of future patches.
In this first step, each ARF group is recursively
bisected and an ARF frame added at that position in the
sequence. The recursion continues until ARF frames are
within MIN_GF_INTERVAL frames.
The code sits behind the "multiple-arf" experimental
flag ("CONFIG_MULTIPLE_ARF"). The experimental flag
"oneshotq" ("CONFIG_ONESHOTQ") also needs to be enabled
for this patch to work correctly.

Updates the YV12_BUFFER_CONFIG structure to be crop-aware. The
exiting width/height parameters are left unchanged, storing the
width and height algined to a 16 byte boundary. The cropped
dimensions are added as new fields.
This fixes a nasty visual pulse when switching between scaled and
unscaled frame dimensions due to a mismatch between the scaling
ratio and the 16-byte aligned sizes.

This is like VP8_COPY_REFERENCE, but returns a pointer to the reference

If a superframe (ARF) is generated while flushing the lagged frames
at the end of the clip, the buffer pointer wasn't being properly
updated to account for the size of the index, causing the next
frame to overwrite the index on the previous frame.
Change-Id: Ib158cc8e4183d663bdfb9ba002dd4c98916abdc9
A 'superframe' is a group of frames that share the same PTS, but have a
defined decoding order. This commit adds the ability to append an index
to such a group of frames, allowing for random access to the constituent
frames. This could be useful for frame-level parallelism or partial
decoding in a multilayer scenario.
Decoding the stream serially without such an index should work as a
fallback, and VP9/TestSuperframeIndexIsOptional verifies that.
