    Make LAST_FRAME always point to the newly coded frame in ext-refs · a912c6ec
    Zoe Liu authored
    This patch changes the encoder only for the ext-refs experiment. For
    each newly coded frame to refresh the LAST_FRAME, the decoder is
    notified that the LAST4_FRAME is to be refreshed, and read out the
    updated reference frame buffer vitural indexes for the next coded
    frame in a way that:
    LAST4_FRAME => LAST_FRAME,
    LAST_FRAME  => LAST2_FRAME,
    LAST2_FRAME => LAST3_FRAME, and
    LAST3_FRAME => LAST4_FRAME.
    
    Compared against the original ext-refs experiment in TOT, a small gain
    is achieved in overall PSNR:
    lowres Avg: -0.154
    lowres BDRate: -0.044
