Coding gain on screen_content is 12.2% (was 6.6%).
Some features such as frame-level color buffer, adaptive
entropy coding, are coming in future patches.

This commit enables the 1-D transform to use Manhattan grid vertical
and horizontal scan order for transform coefficient entropy coding.
Enabled in inter prediction mode, the hybrid 1D/2D transform coding
scheme outperforms the 2D-DCT based coding system used in VP9 by
lowres_all 1.7%
hdres_all 1.4%
As one coding option, in addition to the existing 17 other transform
types in ext-tx experiment, the 1D/2D hybrid transform improves
the coding gains:
lowres_all 2.2% -> 3.0%

Make the RANS implementation operate on cumulative distribution
functions rather than individual probability distribution functions.
CDFs have shown themselves more flexible to work with.
Reduces decoding memory usage from scaling O(num_distributions *
symbol_resolution) to O(num_distributions).
No bitstream change. This is an purely implementation change.

Includes various cosmetic changes and refactoring including
naming the sharp filters differently (since they are no longer
8-tap).

This commit unifies the encoder and decoder border extension and
motion compensated prediction process. Remove the decoder specific

The interintra experiment, which combines an inter prediction and an
inter prediction have been ported from the nextgen branch. The
experiment is merged into ext_inter, so there is no separate configure
option to enable it.

This commit converts the scalar motion vector probability model

In this experiment, an obmc inter prediction mode is enabled for
>= 8X8 inter blocks. When the obmc flag is on, the regular block-
based motion compensation will be refined by using predictors of
the above and left blocks.
Fixed some compatibility issues with vp9_highbitdepth, supertx,
ref_mv, and ext_interp.

Adds a wiener filter based restoration scheme in loop which can
be optionally selected instead of the bilateral filter.
The LMMSE filter generated per frame is a separable symmetric 7
tap filter. Three parameters for each of horizontal and vertical
filters are transmitted in the bitstream. The fourth parameter
is obtained assuming the sum is normalized to 1.
Also integerizes the bilateral filters, along with other
refactoring necessary in order to support the new switchable
restoration type framework.
derflr: -0.75% BDRATE
[A lot of videos still prefer bilateral, however since many frames
now use the simpler separable filter, the decoding speed is
much better].
Further experiments to follow, related to replacing the bilateral.

This commit enables entropy coding for dynamic reference motion

Average speed impact on some derf clips is about 40% slower (on

The loop filter relies on inter_tx_size in MB_MODE_INFO being set
properly when VAR_TX is enabled. Supertx coded blocks did not set this
previously at all, and the differing garbage values eventually resulted
in in a YUV mismatch between encoder and decoder after loop filtering.
This patch fixes this by setting inter_tx_size to the proper supertx
size in both the encoder and the decoder. This should also mean that
loop filtering is done at the proper transform boundaries, even when
supertx or vartx is being used.

Combinations of different mv modes for two reference frames
are allowed in compound inter modes. 9 options are enabled,
including NEAREST_NEARESTMV, NEAREST_NEARMV, NEAR_NEARESTMV,
NEAREST_NEWMV, NEW_NEARESTMV, NEAR_NEWMV, NEW_NEARMV, ZERO_ZEROMV,
and NEW_NEWMV.
This experiment is mostly deported from the nextgen branch.

This is a prelimary patch. Various other variations are to

on the decoder side.

NEW2MV is enabled, representing a new motion vector predicted from
NEARMV. It is mostly ported from nextgen, where it was named
NEW_INTER.
A few fixes are done for sub8x8 RDO to correct some misused
mv references in the original patch.
A 'bug-fix' for encoding complexity is done, reducing the additional
encoding time from 50% to 20%. In sub8x8 case, the old patch
did motion search for every interpolation filter (vp9 only
searches once). This fix also slightly improves the coding gain.
This experiment has been made compatible with REF_MV and EXT_REFS.
