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

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

  526. decoder)
  527. - added fractional frame rate support
  528. - codecs are no longer searched by read_header() (should fix ffserver
  529. segfault)
  530. version 0.4.3:

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

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