  512. - added prototype RM demuxer
  513. - added AC3 decoding (done with libac3 by Aaron Holtzman)
  514. - added decoding codec parameter guessing (.e.g. for MPEG, because the

  517. play them (only tested video)
  518. - fixed H.263 white bug
  519. - fixed phase rounding in img resample filter
  520. - add MMX code for polyphase img resample filter

  525. decoder)
  526. - added fractional frame rate support
  527. - codecs are no longer searched by read_header() (should fix ffserver
  528. segfault)
  529. version 0.4.3:
  530. - BGR24 patch (initial patch by Jeroen Vreeken <pe1rxq at amsat.org>)

  536. - added partial (frame only) MPEG-2 support
  537. - changed the FOURCC code for H.263 to "U263" to be able to see the
  538. +AVI/H.263 file with the UB Video H.263+ decoder. MPlayer works with
  539. this +codec ;) (JuanJo).
  540. - Halfpel motion estimation after MB type selection (JuanJo)
  541. - added pgm and .Y.U.V output format
  542. - suppressed 'img:' protocol. Simply use: /tmp/test%d.[pgm|Y] as input or
  543. output.
  544. - added pgmpipe I/O format (original patch from Martin Aumueller
  545. <lists at reserv.at>, but changed completely since we use a format
  546. instead of a protocol)
  547. version 0.4.2:
  548. - added H.263/MPEG-4/MSMPEG4 decoding support. MPEG-4 decoding support
  549. (for OpenDivX) is almost complete: 8x8 MVs and rounding are
  550. missing. MSMPEG4 support is complete.
  551. - added prototype MPEG-1 decoder. Only I- and P-frames handled yet (it
  552. can decode ffmpeg MPEGs :-)).
  553. - added libavcodec API documentation (see apiexample.c).
  554. - fixed image polyphase bug (the bottom of some images could be
  555. greenish)
  556. - added support for non clipped motion vectors (decoding only)
  557. and image sizes non-multiple of 16
  558. - added support for AC prediction (decoding only)
  559. - added file overwrite confirmation (can be disabled with -y)
  560. - added custom size picture to H.263 using H.263+ (Juanjo)
  561. version 0.4.1:
  562. - added MSMPEG4 (aka DivX) compatible encoder. Changed default codec
  563. of AVI and ASF to DIV3.
  564. - added -me option to set motion estimation method
  565. (default=log). suppressed redundant -hq option.
  566. - added options -acodec and -vcodec to force a given codec (useful for
  567. AVI for example)
  568. - fixed -an option
  569. - improved dct_quantize speed
  570. - factorized some motion estimation code
  571. version 0.4.0:
  572. - removing grab code from ffserver and moved it to ffmpeg. Added
  573. multistream support to ffmpeg.
  574. - added timeshifting support for live feeds (option ?date=xxx in the
  575. URL)
  576. - added high quality image resize code with polyphase filter (need
  577. mmx/see optimization). Enable multiple image size support in ffserver.
  578. - added multi live feed support in ffserver
  579. - suppressed master feature from ffserver (it should be done with an
  580. external program which opens the .ffm url and writes it to another
  581. ffserver)
  582. - added preliminary support for video stream parsing (WAV and AVI half
  583. done). Added proper support for audio/video file conversion in
  584. ffmpeg.
  585. - added preliminary support for video file sending from ffserver
  586. - redesigning I/O subsystem: now using URL based input and output
  587. (see avio.h)

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