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

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

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

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

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

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