Re-investigated the second-level sub-pixel motion search. Improved the
way of choosing search points. Rewrote the second-level search code.
At speed 0, the borg tests showed:
1. for stdhd set, Avg PSNR gain: 0.216%; Overall PSNR gain: 0.196%;
SSIM gain: 0.206%. Only 1 out of 15 clips showed PSNR loss.
2. for derf set, Avg PSNR gain: 0.171%; Overall PSNR gain: 0.192%;
SSIM gain: 0.207%. Only 3 out of 30 clips showed PSNR losses.
Added the condition for third-point checking, namely, less points
were checked. Speed tests showed no speed loss(Avg 0.3% speedup at
speed 0).

-For ambient qp in active_worst setting: increase the initial

Condition usage of rc.frames_since_golden to non-svc mode.
rc.frames_since_golden, which is used in non-svc mode to add second reference,
was causing, under certain condiiton, the turning off of golden reference
for svc case.

and FUN_CONV_2D macros. The predict lut now handles

Choose a different diagonal point to check when the two costs are
the same, making it consistent with the way we choose the best mv.
This slightly changes the encoding result, and the derflr set borg
test at speed 0 shows 0.027% Overall PSNR gain, 0.024% Avg PSNR
gain, and 0.043% SSIM gain.

If the current best mv(namely, the search center) is still the best mv
after the first level search, the second level checks is skipped. This
patch doesn't change the bitstream. At speed 0, it speeds up the encoder
by 1% - 2%.

Ssim_vars is used to accumulate stats based 4x4 pixel blocks, this
commit changes the allocations size to be based on mi_rows and mi_cols
to avoid out-of-bound memory access for larger size videos. The hard

This commit moves the module inverse transform functions from vp9
to vpx_dsp folder. The hybrid transform wrapper functions stay in
the vp9 folder, since it involves codec-specific data structures.

It in essence refactors the code for both the interpolation
filtering and the convolution. This change includes the moving
of all the files as well as the changing of the code from vp9_
prefix to vpx_ prefix accordingly, for underneath architectures:
(1) x86;
(2) arm/neon; and
(3) mips/msa.
The work on mips/drsp2 will be done in a separate change list.

Don't run rate_block (cost_coeffs) if distortion alone is enough to
surpass best_rd.
This decreases 2nd pass runtime on HD at speed 2 by about 2%. There is
zero effect on output if tx_cache is removed.
Change-Id: Ia3b1cc77bfbe6ee988c395fde06c0eb92940b784
1. The RD scores obtained during the tx size selection were stored in the
tx cache, and used to help make the tx decision for the following frames.
This wasn't used anymore in VP9 encoder. Recovered the related decision
making code from 1.5+ years ago, and borg tests didn't show any quality
gain. This patch removed it to lower the complexity.
2. An optimization was done after the above refactoring. If the tx_mode
is not TX_MODE_SELECT, we only need to test the chosen tx size instead
of all posible tx sizes. This gave a 1.5% average speed gain at speed 2,
and a 1% average speed gain at speed 3.

This commit replaces vp9_idct.h with txfm_common.h in many SIMD

Separate the common coefficient constant into vpx_dsp/txfm_common.h.

The RD and load save/code grabs it as groups of four. In practice there

This commit factors out common macro definitions from the forward

This commit limits the scope of 1-D DCT and ADST functions within
vp9_dct.c and makes them static. This largely clears out the cross
referencing issue between vp9_dct.c and the SIMD optimizations.
Change-Id: If7cac478b11bb32328ccf70a9f60b709dad43d7f
The SSE2 version high bit-depth forward hybrid transforms are
essentially using the C functions via cross referencing to 1-D
functions in vp9_dct.c. This commit unifies the two versions and
removes the unnecessary dependency.
Change-Id: Ib4d0702a138f8daf7d0bd97c141ee7088f293765
Separate the hybrid transform case from 2D-DCT case. This will
allow us to clear up cross dependency between c and SIMD
implementations later.

The following quantization functions were moved:
vp9_quantize_b

vp9_quantize_dc
vp9_quantize_dc_32x32

The purpose of doing that was to allow these functions to be shared

Fix bug in setting this flag for animated content.
The bug did cause quality to increase because far
more frames are not boosted than boosted.
However, the speed trade off to gain is a lot less
favorable and the behavior was not as intended.

Use drop_frames_water_mark for threshold on buffer underflow,

Change-Id: I2de19adce50abe9bcdc0b107528cec8cc1857fcc
The fast scaling for 1 pass mode was being used only on the
first frame after resizing event (because resize_scale_num/den

Change-Id: I723b63e21823eb858f25f5662d2bbe4f1842e61f
Proper use/update of resize_state and resize_pending to constrain

The clamp calls with INT32_MIN and INT32_MAX have no effect at all on

Changes to allow more use of rectangular partitions at
speeds 1 and 2 for content classed by the first pass as
animation and for blocks near the active image edge.
This has quite a big impact in quality for the animated
test sequence but also hurts encode speed for speed 2.
For other content types the impact on both speed and
quality is small.
Added some plumbing for detection of internal vertical
image edges.
Change-Id: I3fc48de2349f8cb87946caaf0b06dbb0ea261a9a
Change speed features / behavior for split mode when there
is an internal active edge (e.g. formatting bars).
Remove some threshold constraints in rd code near the active
edge of the image.
Add some plumbing for left and right active edge detection.
Patch set 5. Limit rd pass through for sub 8x8 to internal active edges.
This takes away any speed penalty for most clips but keeps the enhanced
edge coding for the more critical case of internal image edges
Change-Id: If644e4762874de4fe9cbb0a66211953fa74c13a5
If the pre-selected partition size (from variance partition) is
32x32, also apply nonrd partition search for 32x32 and 16x16 size.
Overall small positive gain in metrics, average ~1%.
Some visual improvement, for lower resolutions.
Change-Id: I69cb425bda94f7d13d34c451ab30e9276335a30e
Adds two new vp9 parameters --min-gf-interval and --max-gf-interval
to enable testing based on frequency of alt-ref frames.
Also adds a unit-test to test enforcement of min-gf-interval.
For both these parameters the default value is 0, which indicates
they are picked by the encoder, based on resolution and framerate
considerations. If they are greater than zero, the specified
parameter is honored.
(Additional note by paulwilkins)
Note that there is a slight oddity in that key frames are also GFs and
considered part of GF only group. However they are treated as not
being part of an arf group because for arf groups the previous GF is
assumed to be the terminal or overlay frame for the previous group.

Keep the same transform cutoff and partition selection
for speed 5 as in speeds >=6 (non-rd speed settings).
Existing setting for key frame at speed 5 allowed transform size
up to 32x32 on key frames, and did not allow for 4x4 block partition size.
This created more visual artifacts on first few frames.

For speed 5 real-time mode, the selection of the partition size for
superblocks on the segment (aq-mode=3) uses the non-rd recursive
pick partition search, and can sometimes select 64x64.
For low resolutions, visually better to limit this to 32x32.

Some initial experiments into discounting dead zone
formating bars and intra skip blocks (common in some
types of animation and graphics) in the calculation of
the active max Q for each ARF/GF group.
TODO: check for vertical formating bars and validate the
horizontal bar at the bottom edge of the image.
As expected, this change as it stands, does not make much
difference for the natural videos in the std-hd and derf sets.
However, for the yt and yt hd set there is a significant rise
in the average PSNR with overall PSNR and SSIM remaining
neutral.
The mean rise for the YT-HD test set was > 6%. This is mainly
because the change allows Q to drop further on titles and
other graphics sections where spending a small number of
extra bits gives a sharp rise in PSNR.

For content that is identified as likely to contain some
animation or graphics content, increase the availability
of split modes for good quality speeds 1-3.
On a problem test animation clip this improves metrics
results by about 0.25 db and makes a noticeable difference
visually. It also causes a small drop in file size (~0.5%) but
a rise in encode time of about 5-6% at speed 2.
For more normal content it should have no effect.
