  558. +AVI/H.263 file with the UB Video H.263+ decoder. MPlayer works with
  559. this +codec ;) (JuanJo).
  560. - Halfpel motion estimation after MB type selection (JuanJo)
  561. - added pgm and .Y.U.V output format
  562. - suppressed 'img:' protocol. Simply use: /tmp/test%d.[pgm|Y] as input or
  563. output.

  565. <lists at reserv.at>, but changed completely since we use a format
  566. instead of a protocol)

  583. of AVI and ASF to DIV3.
  584. - added -me option to set motion estimation method
  585. (default=log). suppressed redundant -hq option.

  597. mmx/see optimization). Enable multiple image size support in ffserver.
  598. - added multi live feed support in ffserver
  599. - suppressed master feature from ffserver (it should be done with an
  600. external program which opens the .ffm url and writes it to another
  601. ffserver)
  602. - added preliminary support for video stream parsing (WAV and AVI half
  603. done). Added proper support for audio/video file conversion in
  604. ffmpeg.
  605. - added preliminary support for video file sending from ffserver
