  528. decoder)
  529. - added fractional frame rate support

  540. - changed the FOURCC code for H.263 to "U263" to be able to see the
  541. +AVI/H.263 file with the UB Video H.263+ decoder. MPlayer works with
  542. this +codec ;) (JuanJo).
  543. - Halfpel motion estimation after MB type selection (JuanJo)
  544. - added pgm and .Y.U.V output format
  545. - suppressed 'img:' protocol. Simply use: /tmp/test%d.[pgm|Y] as input or
  546. output.
  547. - added pgmpipe I/O format (original patch from Martin Aumueller
  548. <lists at reserv.at>, but changed completely since we use a format
  549. instead of a protocol)
  550. version 0.4.2:
  551. - added H.263/MPEG-4/MSMPEG4 decoding support. MPEG-4 decoding support
  552. (for OpenDivX) is almost complete: 8x8 MVs and rounding are
  553. missing. MSMPEG4 support is complete.
  554. - added prototype MPEG-1 decoder. Only I- and P-frames handled yet (it
  555. can decode ffmpeg MPEGs :-)).

  557. - fixed image polyphase bug (the bottom of some images could be
  558. greenish)

  560. and image sizes non-multiple of 16
  561. - added support for AC prediction (decoding only)
  562. - added file overwrite confirmation (can be disabled with -y)
  563. - added custom size picture to H.263 using H.263+ (Juanjo)

  565. - added MSMPEG4 (aka DivX) compatible encoder. Changed default codec
  566. of AVI and ASF to DIV3.
  567. - added -me option to set motion estimation method
  568. (default=log). suppressed redundant -hq option.
  569. - added options -acodec and -vcodec to force a given codec (useful for
  570. AVI for example)
  571. - fixed -an option
  572. - improved dct_quantize speed
  573. - factorized some motion estimation code
  574. version 0.4.0:
  575. - removing grab code from ffserver and moved it to ffmpeg. Added
  576. multistream support to ffmpeg.
  577. - added timeshifting support for live feeds (option ?date=xxx in the
  578. URL)
  579. - added high quality image resize code with polyphase filter (need
  580. mmx/see optimization). Enable multiple image size support in ffserver.
  581. - added multi live feed support in ffserver
  582. - suppressed master feature from ffserver (it should be done with an
  583. external program which opens the .ffm url and writes it to another
  584. ffserver)
  585. - added preliminary support for video stream parsing (WAV and AVI half
  586. done). Added proper support for audio/video file conversion in
  587. ffmpeg.
  588. - added preliminary support for video file sending from ffserver
  589. - redesigning I/O subsystem: now using URL based input and output
  590. (see avio.h)

  600. - added stereo in MPEG audio encoder
  601. version 0.3.3:
  602. - added 'high quality' mode which use motion vectors. It can be used in
  603. real time at low resolution.
  604. - fixed rounding problems which caused quality problems at high
  605. bitrates and large GOP size
