This patch adds column-based tiling. The idea is to make each tile independently decodable (after reading the common frame header) and also independendly encodable (minus within-frame cost adjustments in the RD loop) to speed-up hardware & software en/decoders if they used multi-threading. Column-based tiling has the added advantage (over other tiling methods) that it minimizes realtime use-case latency, since all threads can start encoding data as soon as the first SB-row worth of data is available to the encoder. There is some test code that does random tile ordering in the decoder, to confirm that each tile is indeed independently decodable from other tiles in the same frame. At tile edges, all contexts assume default values (i.e. 0, 0 motion vector, no coefficients, DC intra4x4 mode), and motion vector search and ordering do not cross tiles in the same frame. t log Tile independence is not maintained between frames ATM, i.e. tile 0 of frame 1 is free to use motion vectors that point into any tile of frame 0. We support 1 (i.e. no tiling), 2 or 4 column-tiles. The loopfilter crosses tile boundaries. I discussed this briefly with Aki and he says that's OK. An in-loop loopfilter would need to do some sync between tile threads, but that shouldn't be a big issue. Resuls: with tiling disabled, we go up slightly because of improved edge use in the intra4x4 prediction. With 2 tiles, we lose about ~1% on derf, ~0.35% on HD and ~0.55% on STD/HD. With 4 tiles, we lose another ~1.5% on derf ~0.77% on HD and ~0.85% on STD/HD. Most of this loss is concentrated in the low-bitrate end of clips, and most of it is because of the loss of edges at tile boundaries and the resulting loss of intra predictors. TODO: - more tiles (perhaps allow row-based tiling also, and max. 8 tiles)? - maybe optionally (for EC purposes), motion vectors themselves should not cross tile edges, or we should emulate such borders as if they were off-frame, to limit error propagation to within one tile only. This doesn't have to be the default behaviour but could be an optional bitstream flag. Change-Id: I5951c3a0742a767b20bc9fb5af685d9892c2c96f

Avoid a pthreads dependency via pthread_once() when compiled with --disable-multithread. In addition, this synchronization is disabled for Win32 as well, even though we can be sure that the required primatives exist, so that the requirements on the application when built with --disable-multithread are consistent across platforms. Users using libvpx built with --disable-multithread in a multithreaded context should provide their own synchronization. Updated the documentation to vpx_codec_enc_init_ver() and vpx_codec_dec_init_ver() to note this requirement. Moved the RTCD initialization call to match this description, as previously it didn't happen until the first frame. Change-Id: Id576f6bce2758362188278d3085051c218a56d4a

This is a code snapshot of experimental work currently ongoing for a next-generation codec. The codebase has been cut down considerably from the libvpx baseline. For example, we are currently only supporting VBR 2-pass rate control and have removed most of the code relating to coding speed, threading, error resilience, partitions and various other features. This is in part to make the codebase easier to work on and experiment with, but also because we want to have an open discussion about how the bitstream will be structured and partitioned and not have that conversation constrained by past work. Our basic working pattern has been to initially encapsulate experiments using configure options linked to #IF CONFIG_XXX statements in the code. Once experiments have matured and we are reasonably happy that they give benefit and can be merged without breaking other experiments, we remove the conditional compile statements and merge them in. Current changes include: * Temporal coding experiment for segments (though still only 4 max, it will likely be increased). * Segment feature experiment - to allow various bits of information to be coded at the segment level. Features tested so far include mode and reference frame information, limiting end of block offset and transform size, alongside Q and loop filter parameters, but this set is very fluid. * Support for 8x8 transform - 8x8 dct with 2nd order 2x2 haar is used in MBs using 16x16 prediction modes within inter frames. * Compound prediction (combination of signals from existing predictors to create a new predictor). * 8 tap interpolation filters and 1/8th pel motion vectors. * Loop filter modifications. * Various entropy modifications and changes to how entropy contexts and updates are handled. * Extended quantizer range matched to transform precision improvements. There are also ongoing further experiments that we hope to merge in the near future: For example, coding of motion and other aspects of the prediction signal to better support larger image formats, use of larger block sizes (e.g. 32x32 and up) and lossless non-transform based coding options (especially for key frames). It is our hope that we will be able to make regular updates and we will warmly welcome community contributions. Please be warned that, at this stage, the codebase is currently slower than VP8 stable branch as most new code has not been optimized, and even the 'C' has been deliberately written to be simple and obvious, not fast. The following graphs have the initial test results, numbers in the tables measure the compression improvement in terms of percentage. The build has the following optional experiments configured: --enable-experimental --enable-enhanced_interp --enable-uvintra --enable-high_precision_mv --enable-sixteenth_subpel_uv CIF Size clips: http://getwebm.org/tmp/cif/ HD size clips: http://getwebm.org/tmp/hd/ (stable_20120309 represents encoding results of WebM master branch build as of commit#7a159071) They were encoded using the following encode parameters: --good --cpu-used=0 -t 0 --lag-in-frames=25 --min-q=0 --max-q=63 --end-usage=0 --auto-alt-ref=1 -p 2 --pass=2 --kf-max-dist=9999 --kf-min-dist=0 --drop-frame=0 --static-thresh=0 --bias-pct=50 --minsection-pct=0 --maxsection-pct=800 --sharpness=0 --arnr-maxframes=7 --arnr-strength=3(for HD,6 for CIF) --arnr-type=3 Change-Id: I5c62ed09cfff5815a2bb34e7820d6a810c23183c

Adding support for several partitions within one input fragment. This is necessary to fully support all possible packetization combinations in the VP8 RTP profile. Several partitions can be transmitted in the same packet, and they can only be split by reading the partition lengths from the bitstream. Change-Id: If7d7ea331cc78cb7efd74c4a976b720c9a655463

The error-concealer is plugged in after any motion vectors have been decoded. It tries to estimate any missing motion vectors from the motion vectors of the previous frame. Intra blocks with missing residual are replaced with inter blocks with estimated motion vectors. This feature was developed in a separate sandbox (sandbox/holmer/error-concealment).

This renames the vpx_codec/ directory to vpx/, to allow applications to more consistently reference these includes with the vpx/ prefix. This allows the includes to be installed in /usr/local/include/vpx rather than polluting the system includes directory with an excessive number of includes.
