We can use one frame context for each layer so that we don't have
to reset the probs every frame. But we can't use prev_mi since we
may drop enhancement layers. So we have to generate a non vp9
compatible bitstream and modify it in the player.
1. We need to code all frames as invisible frame to let prev_mi
not to be used. But in the bitstream we need to code the
show_frame flag to 1 so that the publisher will know it's
supposed to be a visible frame.
2. In the player we need to change the show_frame flag to 0 for
all frames. Then add an one byte frame into the super frame
to tell the decoder which layer we want to show.

The function was called in two places. In the first case it is replaced
with vp9_set_speed_features() call. In the second case the body of set_speed_features() is inlined.

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;
}

When OUTPUT_YUV_DENOISED is enabled the encoder outputs the uncompressed,

The commit moved a call to vp9_clear_system_state() to a correct
location, i.e. prior function calls using floating point numbers.
This was to fix a mismatch mmx code and sse2 version, where a
floating point number used in adjust_frame_rate(cpi) gets NAN due
to mmx registers being in wrong state.

This patch is the first step toward simplifying the
frame buffer handling.
The final goal is to have a common frame buffer handling
framework for both encoder and decoder that incorporates
the existing ability to use externally allocated memory.

2 pass only change to calculation of rd mult based on Q.
Make a small adjustment based on frame type and also
replace adjustment based on iifactor with an one based

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

In the previous version, only certain buffers in the macroblockd were saved and

As in VP8.
Currently, this parameter is set with the VP8E_SET_NOISE_SENSITIVITY flag.
The flag was not renamed so that we don't break the interface for webrtc. This

Before encoding a frame, calculate and store each 16x16 block's
variance of source difference between last and current frame.
Find partitioning threshold T for the frame from its variance
histogram, and then use T to make partition decisions.
Comparing with fixed 16x16 partitioning, rtc set test showed an
overall psnr gain of 3.242%, and ssim gain of 3.751%. The best
psnr gain is 8.653%.
The overall encoding speed didn't change much. It got faster for
some clips(for example, 12% speedup for vidyo1), and a little
slower for others.
Also, a minor modification was made in datarate unit test.

This patch allows the encoder to skip the partition search for the
frame if it is an inter frame and only zero motion vectors have
been detected in the first pass. The partition size is directly
assigned according to the difference variance.
Borg tests show overall little performance changes in term of PSNR
(derf -0.027%, yt 0.152%, hd 0.078%, stdhd 0%). The worst case of
PSNR loss is -0.514% from yt. The best PSNR gain is 4.293% from yt.
The second pass encoding speedup for slideshow clips is 15%-40%.

There is a normative scaling range of (x1/2, x16)
for VP9. This patch fixes the maximum downscaling
tests that are applied in the convolve function.
The code used a maximum downscaling limit of x1/5
for historic reasons related to the scalable
coding work. Since the downsampling in this
application is non-normative it will revert to
using a separate non-normative scaler.

This patch implements a mechanism for inserting a second
arf at the mid position of arf groups.
It is currently disabled by default using the flag multi_arf_enabled.
Results are currently down somewhat in initial testing if
multi-arf is enabled. Most of the loss is attributable to the
fact that code to preserve the previous golden frame
(in the arf buffer) in cases where we are coding an overlay
frame, is currently disabled in the multi-arf case.

The encoder currently allocates frame buffers before
it establishes what the chroma sub-sampling factor is,
always allocating based on the 4:4:4 format.
This patch detects the chroma format as early as
possible allowing the encoder to allocate buffers of
the correct size.
Future patches will change the encoder to allocate
frame buffers on demand to further reduce the memory
profile of the encoder and rationalize the buffer
management in the encoder and decoder.
