        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix bug which causes the
          encoder to crash when encoding Intra-only sequences.  For intra
          sequences we need to insert a sequence header every
          pre-determined number of frames (we use 10). Also all pictures in
          an Intra-only sequence should be Non-ref Intra pictures.

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Adaptive GOP coding now works
          for field coding.

          This is a bit hacky. It would be better to remove the need to
          code fields together and just double the L1 picture separation.

          Author: Thomas Davies <thomas.davies@bbc.co.uk>

2008-08-14 12:08  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fixed long-dependency chain

2008-08-14 12:00  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/: rate_control.cpp, seq_compress.cpp: Rate
          control now works better with adaptive GOP.

          GOP restarts were not being handled correctly.

          Intra insertion added back in.

          GOP will restart if a scheduled P picture is Intra.

          Author: Thomas Davies <thomas.davies@bbc.co.uk>

2008-08-14 11:56  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Fixed so that the encoder can now skip large
          numbers of frames.

          Author: Thomas Davies <thomas.davies@bbc.co.uk>

2008-08-14 11:55  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/: dirac_encoder.cpp, seq_compress.cpp:
          Temporarily disabled instrumentation as it's now buggy.

          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.h: Subgroups will now switch to PPP
          coding for difficult sequences.

          The ratio of intra blocks is used to determine whether a P
          picture contains large or poorly matched motions. If so the
          subgroup terminated by that P is switched to all pictures.

          This mod is still buggy.

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fixed bug where encoder queue
          was not being pruned.

          Also now retire I pictures after 2 L1 pictures, due to changed
          GOP structure.

        * libdirac_encoder/: picture_compress.cpp, seq_compress.cpp:
          Encoder will now drop a reference if not useful.

          Author: Thomas Davies <thomas.davies@bbc.co.uk>

2008-08-14 10:58  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_mode_decn.cpp, me_utils.cpp, me_utils.h:
          Modified intra selection to use a Haar transform.

          A Haar transform is applied to the difference array after
          subtracting the DC value. This penalises blocks where there is a
          lot of structure, but not blocks which are close to the DC value.

        * libdirac_common/motion.cpp, libdirac_common/motion.h,
          libdirac_encoder/enc_picture.cpp, libdirac_encoder/enc_picture.h:
          Added support for being able to drop a reference from an inter
          picture.

          If it's determined that a reference is unlike the current
          picture, any matches might be accidental and could reduce
          quality. So being able to drop references could be useful.

          Fixed bug with P-only coding.  Added support for switching block
          sizes for pics with lots of intra blocks.  Added another
          complexity metric based on variance of prediction residue.  Added
          intra block ratio to MEData class.  Defined a complexity measure
          based on pel ME SAD values.  Pixel accurate motion estimation
          done using look ahead.  Encoder now preloads a queue of frames.
          Split up motion estimation into tasks within the sequence
          compressor engine.  Separated out prefiltering.  Incorporated
          wavelet coefficient data into Picture class.  Moved subband
          metadata into CoeffArray class.  Further splitting of picture
          coding into subtasks.  Reorganised picture coding into subtasks
          called by sequence compressor.  Fixed bug on updating CBR model
          for field coding.  Changed AccessUnitByteIO to
          SequenceHeaderByteIO for spec consistency.  Fixed bug with motion
          data being incorrectly coded.  Added ME data to the EncPicture
          class.  Fixed unit test for motion compensation.  Renamed
          EncBuffer class as EncQueue class to make Andrea happy.  Fixed
          buffers to be mere wrappers around vectors of pointers. Partially
          fixed unit tests.  Change frame to picture names.  Fixed for
          compatibility with buffer interfaces.  Simplified buffer memory
          management.  Simplified buffer operation for decoder.  Changed
          default qf to 5.5 Synched with cvs for libdirac_decoder Updated
          against current cvs in libdirac_{byteio,common} Changed GOP L1
          refs to reduce "breakthrough" Refactored to use encoder picture
          and encoder buffer classes.  Added classes for encoder pictures
          and specialist buffer.  Simplified picture class.  Refactor to
          make subclassing easier.  Fixed interlace IO errors.  Refactored
          so as to remove encoder-specific methods from picture buffer.
          Modified picbuffer so that decoder solely manages picture params
          and GOP.  Modified makefile for encoder picture class.

          list.

2008-06-20 20:03  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Check that future pictures
          exist in the picture buffer before using them as references for
          the current picture.

          terminology.

        * libdirac_encoder/: seq_compress.cpp, seq_compress.h: Moved GOP
          structure determination into this class.

          classes.

2008-06-19 20:17  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: pic_io.cpp, pic_io.h: Refactored to comply with

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp.cpp, mot_comp.h: Changed interface.

          Interface changes because EncQueue class is not a subclass of
          PictureBuffer.

2008-06-19 20:10  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: picture.cpp, picture.h: Minor refactor to
          remove "redo" metadata.

          The picture buffer deletes and reallocates data now, so we don't
          need to reconfigure/reinitialise a picture. So we can lose the
          tracking metadata.

2008-06-19 20:07  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: picture_buffer.cpp, picture_buffer.h:
          Refactored so that the class is a simple wrapper around a vector
          of pointers.

          Removed all the GOP functionality so that it is done in the
          sequence compressor class.

2008-06-19 20:05  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/Makefile.am: Added new files.

        * libdirac_encoder/: enc_picture.cpp, enc_picture.h, enc_queue.cpp,
          enc_queue.h: Added classes for encoder picture and encoder
          picture queue.

          The encoder picture subclasses a basic picture and adds original
          data as well as coded data. An encoder queue is a queue of
          encoder pictures, so separate queues/buffers for original and
          motion estimation data are not needed.

        * extras/dirac_dshow/src/diracsplitter/: DiracSplitter.cpp,
          DiracSplitterFile.cpp, DiracSplitterFile.h: Modified the code so
          that the Dirac decoder module of the the filter can connect to
          splitters (e.g. AVI splitter) other than the Dirac splitter. We
          can now play back AVI files containing Dirac muxed with audio.

2008-06-18 11:16  asuraparaju

          have the "ISO C9X: 7.18 Integer types" in different header files.
          MS VC++ does not define these types so manually typedef the ones
          used in Dirac (int64_t and uint64_t) to MSVC++ types.

          of prefiltering.

          Prefiltering using rectangular, diagonal or centre-weighted
          median filtering is now available as a command-line option.
          Rectangular and diagonal low-pass filtering are both adaptive,
          with strength determined by the QF and also a strength parameter
          added on the command line. Centre-weighted median filtering is
          non-adaptive, but adjusts the centre weight according to the
          strength parameter.

          Usage is :

          dirac_encoder ... -prefilter FILTER_NAME n ....

          where FILTER_NAME is one of NO_PF, CWM, RECTLP, DIAGLP and n is
          from 0 to 10.  NO_PF means no prefilter.

          libdirac_encoder/quant_chooser.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Various refactorings and
          bug-fixes.

          1. Changed how padding is implemented so that padding is only
          added to the coefficient array before the wavelet transform, and
          is removed from the coefficient array immediately after the
          wavelet transform.  No metadata for "OrigXl" etc is needed now.

          2. Various places "frame" is changed to "picture" and "fparams"
          to "pparams" etc.

          3. Fixed bug with misreporting bit rate for long sequences by
          recording data with int64_t not int.

          4. Fixed a bug with perceptual weighting where additional weight
          was being given to the DC band even though it is coded
          losslessly. This threw out weights for the other bands when the
          weights were normalised, especially for intra pictures. In turn
          this required that the relative lambdas used for different
          picture types had to be changed.

          5. Fixed a minor bug with rate control where the intra lambda was
          not being applied correctly.

          6. Changed "field coding" metadata to "picture coding mode"
          metadata throughout, as per spec.

          7. Changed "QIndex" throughout to "QuantIndex" etc for clarity.

          8. Refactored picture coding and decoding to simplify things a
          little.

2007-12-21 01:54  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: bs-spec.tex, quant-matrix.tex, state-macros.tex:
          Modified quant matrix so that it's calculated from the synthesis
          filters and properly normalised. Changed the scan format part so
          that the top field first flag can't be overridden in the source
          parameters. This is consistent with vc2.

          VC2 now submitted: these should be the last changes to the
          non-motion data except for bug fixes. This part is frozen.

          libdirac_encoder/rate_control.h,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Modified rate control. The
          rate control no longer crashes when it inserts intra pictures:
          the picture bits in this case are allocated to the _scheduled_
          picture type. A tentative buffer model has been re-introduced
          whereby the GOP allocation is adapted slowly to reduce
          overshoots, and quickly to reduce undershoots. The buffer target
          occupancy is set to 90%, and once every GOP this is corrected for
          bit rate overshoots, and once every subgroup (i.e. much faster)
          it is corrected, by a larger amount, for bit rate undershoots. In
          addition, if the bit rate for a particular frame is <50% of the
          target bit rate, an emergency reallocation is applied.

          The frame compressor and sequence compressor classes have been
          re-arranged so that the frame compressor manages quantisation
          selection. This will allow the rate controller to be modified
          with look-ahead, changing QF values ahead of time based on
          estimated bit rate for residuals, as well as on the results of
          motion estimation. At the moment it's still pure feedback
          however.

          Performance on difficult pictures has also been improved by
          increasing the quality of inserted I frames, and increasing the
          premium given to pictures with a large number of intra blocks.

          Quantiser selection has also been tidied a little.

          pixel- accurate motion compensation: upconverted ref has size
          2W-1 x 2H-1 so that (even) edge pixels are all derived from
          original data.

2007-11-23 02:19  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: upconvert.cpp, upconvert.h, upconvert_mmx.cpp:
          Changed filter to 8 taps with 6 signed bits per tap by
          approximating the original 10 tap, 9 bit filter. The intermediate
          calculations will now fit into 16 bits even for 10 bit input
          data. The new filter causes compression to be up to 0.1dB worse,
          in return for much speedier performance when optimised.

2007-08-21 13:46  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/frame_buffer.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix errors reported by
          valgrind where unitialiased data was being read from upconverted
          arrays. The upconverter uses the actual frame dimensions and not
          the padded dimensions whereas the ME engine uses the padded
          dimensions which is resulting in unitialised data reads. The
          motion estimation frame buffer now holds the actual frames rather
          than the padded frames to overcome this problem.

2007-08-21 13:42  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: arrays.h, frame.cpp, frame.h: New functions to
          copy contents of one frame to another without altering the
          dimensions of the destination frame. The destination frame is
          padded with the last true value in the source frame if it is
          bigger than the source frame.

2007-08-13 11:29  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp: Changed anti-intra bias to
          10%: i.e. intra only needs to be 10% better in SAD terms to be
          chosen, rather than 20%. This (slightly) improves ME mismatches.

2007-08-07 14:19  tjdwave

          Fixed problem with int32 overflow with very high bit rates.
          Fixed problem with non-integral frame rates being incorrectly
          set.

2007-07-30 19:40  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/motion.cpp: Initialise intra costs and dc arrays
          to prevent uninitialised read error and memory hogging in
          intrumentation utilities.

2007-07-26 13:56  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp: Improve Intra mode selection
          routine. Incorrect RDO modelling of mode selection has been
          removed, and intra is only selected if a) motion compensated
          error is not very small, and b) intra gives a substantial SAD
          improvement.

2007-07-26 13:53  tjdwave

        * unit_tests/wavelet_utils_test.cpp: Adapted unit test to support a

2007-07-26 13:49  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Added class to cope with
          array types being different.

2007-07-26 13:47  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Supports higher wavelet depth when MMX is

          libdirac_encoder/quant_chooser.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/quant_chooser.h: Added CoeffType and CoeffArray
          types for wavelet coefficients and arrays of coefficients. For
          MMX optimisation, CoeffType will be short, but otherwise it will
          be int. In this way large wavelet depths can be supported.

2007-07-26 13:39  tjdwave

2007-07-18 09:14  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, wavelet_utils.cpp: Clarified
          parent-child relationship and context selection. No parent is now
          assigned to the lowest 4 subbands and the context selection just
          depends on the parent value, which is set to zero when there is
          no defined parent band.

          longer incluse the Picture Number of the 1st frame that follows
          the Access Unit Header.

2007-07-05 15:13  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: bs-spec.tex, core-wlt-dec.tex, lifting.tex,
          quant-matrix.tex, spec-structure.tex: Removed the AU Picture
          Number, which now serves no purpose. Also added parse code and
          operation for doing intra coding without arithmetic coding.  This
          latter is still to be agreed.

          quality factor. The rate of convergence is adaptive, depending on
          the difference between the actual and target quality, which
          overcomes the usual lag of recursive filtering. When the
          difference is large, convergence is steady. When it is relatively
          small, convergence is very rapid.

          libdirac_motionest/pixel_match.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/pixel_match.h: Added support for full-search
          block matching. This is controlled by using the flag

          -full_search [xr] [yr]

          to do an initial pixel-accurate search in the range
          [-xr,xr]x[-yr,yr].  Sub-pixel refinement is unaffected.

          Mode decision and the standard hierachical block match have been
          slightly changed to improve performance.

          filter to DD9_5. Changed weights for (13,5) to correspond to
          analysis rather than synthesis filter. This seems to give
          slightly better results even with perceptual weighting.

          matrices. Also changed name of DD (9,3) filter to (9,5) filter as
          these are the correct filter lengths.

          (for dwt) dimensions. All operations in the decoder other than
          the inverse wavelet transform are now performed using the

          rate_control.cpp, rate_control.h, seq_compress.cpp: Modified
          constant bit-rate operation, so that when a cut is detected the
          long-term qf is used, instead of the current one in the rate
          model.  This has the effect of reducing quality crashes and rate
          explosions.

          libdirac_byteio/parseunit_byteio.h,
          libdirac_decoder/dirac_cppparser.cpp: Handle auxiliary/paddaing
          data parse units and low-delay frames. Auxiliary/ padding data
          parse units are ignored by the decoder. When the decoder
          encounters a low-delay frame it exits with an error message.

2007-05-02 09:52  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Fixed bug with using
          -multi_quants -lossless : multiquants were being signalled, but

2007-05-01 10:56  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.cpp: Fixed bug in calculating

2007-04-30 14:13  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/dataenc.tex: Fixed table warning

2007-04-26 14:56  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/frame_buffer.cpp, libdirac_common/frame_buffer.h,
          libdirac_decoder/frame_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/seq_decompress.cpp: Added new function to
          FrameBuffer to check if  frame is available before using it. This
          is to prevent from trying to dereference a non-existent first
          frame from the buffer. This function is a temporary fix.
          FrameBuffer might need to be re-written to return pointer to a
          frame in the buffer rather than a reference so that the return
          value can be checked for NULL before using it.

2007-04-25 11:49  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/profilelevel.tex: Revised text on levels and
          profiles.

2007-04-24 16:42  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: arith.tex, bs-spec.tex, dataenc.tex,
          layout-fullsize.tex, low-delay.tex, sourcepresets.tex,
          spec-conventions.tex, wlt-dec.tex: Removed superfluous parse
          codes and added a parse code for padding data.  Removed reference
          to using_ac and using_mc flags/functions: low-delay syntax is now
          vlc-only, and without motion compensation; core syntax supports
          both motion compensation and arithmetic coding.

2007-04-24 10:35  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: sourcepresets.tex, state-macros.tex, vidsys.tex:
          Refactored the source parameter appendix to get rid of remaining

          to video systems model, covering YCoCg coding and colour
          matrixing etc. YCoCg has been changed to give an additional bit
          to Y so that luma and chroma have the same resolution, to avoid

          picture-dec.tex, spec-conventions.tex, state-macros.tex,
          wlt-dec.tex: Removed mention of Y,U and V - instead use Y, C1 and
          C2. Fixed bug with biased rounding in IDWT, and fixed bug with
          ref2 motion vector decoding.

2007-04-16 12:17  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/arith.tex: Finalised informative text on
          arithmetic encoding. Minor bug fixes.

2007-04-11 17:26  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Initialise the multi-quants
          flag and estimated bits for DC band to fix bug where decoder
          output was not matching locally decoded output.

2007-04-11 17:23  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/video_format_defaults.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix initialisation errors
          reported by valgrind.

2007-04-11 16:28  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: arith-encoder.tex, arith.tex, bs-spec.tex,

          spec-structure.tex, state-macros.tex, stream-access.tex,
          wlt-dec.tex: Modified arithmetic coding sections to place the
          arithmetic coding engine in an annex. The AC system now agrees
          with the code, using the LUT update implementation.

          Various compile warnings also fixed.

2007-04-11 15:36  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Minor cosmetic change to simplify
          symbol decoding and agree with AC theory.

        * libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp: Fixed bug with motion vector coding
          on long sequences.

2007-04-11 09:08  tjdwave

          libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.h,
          libdirac_encoder/quality_monitor.cpp: Motion vector data is now
          split into a number of different parts which are coded as
          separate units:

          - Superblock/macroblock splitting mode - Block prediction mode -
          Motion vectors, reference 1, horizontal component - Motion
          vectors, reference 1, vertical component - Motion vectors,
          reference 2, horizontal component - Motion vectors, reference 2,
          vertical component - DC values, Y - DC values, U - DC values, V

          Each is a separate, byte-aligned element with a prefixing length
          code.

          This allows parallel encoding and decoding of these elements,
          especially beneficial in hardware.

          Still TO DO: gather statistics on each of these elements
          separately.

2007-04-11 08:52  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: comp_compress.cpp, quant_chooser.cpp: Fix to
          stop drift on sequences of still frames: at high rate, DC bands
          were being erroneously skipped, causing a build-up of dc error.
          This fix means that DC bands are always coded losslessly and
          never skipped. Further experiments may be required to see if this
          condition can be relaxed.

2007-04-04 17:00  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: arith.tex, mc.tex, motion-dec.tex,
          spec-conventions.tex, state-macros.tex: Changed motion data
          coding specification to allow for parallel decoding of motion
          data elements.

          Fixed bugs in arithmetic coding spec - this will be refactored to
          reflect recent code changes soon.

2007-04-04 09:11  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/bs-spec.tex: Fixed the next parse offset and
          previous parse offset to be 4 bytes instead of 3. This is now in

        * tests/samples.at: Define a variable mv_prec to set the motion
          vector precision on the encoder command line. Values is currently
          hardcoded to quarter pixel. Change the value of variable mv_prec
          to run the tests with a different value.

        * libdirac_motionest/motion_estimate.cpp, libdirac_common/common.h:
          Hack to support pixel accurate motion estimation. The pixel
          accurate motion vectors are multipled by 2 and then half-pel
          accurate motion estimation is performed. After ME, he motion
          vectors are divided by 2 to convert them back to pixel accurate
          motion vectors.

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Simplified
          probability estimation for arithmetic coding to speed up encoding
          and decoding.  Now the total symbol count is ASSUMED to be a
          function of the current probability. The update is implemented in
          a lookup table for speed. The total symbol count is assumed to be
          16 when probabilit of 0 is 0.5, and assumed to be 256 when prob 0
          is 1.

2007-03-29 17:43  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_byteio/: dirac_byte_stream.cpp,
          endofsequence_byteio.cpp, endofsequence_byteio.h: Fix the bug
          which reported "total bits for sequence" in verbose mode to be
          less than the actual the size (in bits) of the bitstream file
          written to disk.  This was because the number of bytes in the end
          of sequence header was not being included in the total bits for
          the sequence.

2007-03-27 17:26  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_byteio/parseunit_byteio.cpp: [Spec Compliance] The next

          each.

2007-03-27 16:20  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.h, libdirac_encoder/rate_control.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/rate_control.h,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Major refactor of rate control
          algorithm. The original algorithm aimed for constant bit rate
          over a single GOP. This tended to be unstable when content
          changed and could cause quality to degrade significantly at the
          end of GOPs in order to attempt to correct for high bit rate at
          the beginning.

          The algorithm has been revised so that a target buffer occupancy
          is aimed for, with the target bit rate set as equal to the mean
          bit rate plus an adjustment factor to steer back to target. Bit
          rate is computed for a subgroup (PBB or IBB) in a very similar
          way, but on a rolling basis rather than a target for a single
          GOP.

          For the moment, a buffer size of 4xbit rate has been selected.
          Fixed buffer sizes may be implemented when levels are specified.

          Buffer overflows (too little bit rate - this is a _decoder_
          buffer model) or underflows (too much bit rate) are indicated by
          warnings in verbose mode.  The buffer occupancy is then limited,
          so that these events are not corrected for at present.

2007-03-26 16:28  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed computation of GOP
          statistics to maintain coded order. GOP is counted as up to just
          before the next scheduled access point (intra frame).

2007-03-26 12:20  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Weights are now being correctly set

2007-03-26 11:24  davidf_

        * libdirac_encoder/quant_chooser.cpp: Stop quantizing DC subband at
          all, otherwise chroma error is appearing.  Also includes fix from
          thomasd to look at the whole of the DC subband instead of
          ignoring the first (most important value)

2007-03-23 15:32  asuraparaju

          lines for the encoder, decoder.

2007-03-22 18:27  davidf_

        * ChangeLog, README, decoder/decmain.cpp, encoder/encmain.cpp:
          Altered command line file handling.  a) now support taking input
          from stdin (input specified as '-' or '/dev/stdin').  b) removed
          strange filename extension stripping/appending for primary input
          and output files (locally decoded video and instrumentation are
          outputfilename.{local-dec.yuv,imt}.

          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.h: Added support for CBR encoding.
          This equalises bitrate over a GOP (I frame  to  I frame). It does
          not enforce bit rate, nor does it operate according to a buffer
          model.

          To apply CBR coding, add -targetrate N, where N is the target bit
          rate in Kb/s.

          Precedence: 1) if a quality factor is also set with -qf Q, then
          the value of Q is used as the initial value for the system, but
          CBR is still applied.  2) if -lossless is also set, then lossless
          coding is applied and CBR constraints are ignored.

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.h, band_codec.cpp, band_codec.h,
          mv_codec.cpp, mv_codec.h: Changed arithmetic coding again
          slighly. Restored count initialisation to (1,1) and reordered
          probability/count rescaling parts to get a little more compact
          code and greater speed. Tidied band codec and mv codec stuff.

2007-02-28 16:22  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h, band_codec.cpp,

          incorporating periodic calculation of probabilities. Also removed
          periodic context rescaling, which wasn't really helping
          compression performance, and added to complexity.

2007-02-20 14:06  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Code tidy,
          removing a preponderence of inline functions. Also improved
          renormalisation.

2007-02-20 09:55  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Modified
          renormalisation condition and simplified renormalisation process.
          Renormalisation is now only invoked if the interval is <=1/4 of
          the range.  This means that either the most significant bits of
          low and high are the same, or we have low=0x01... and high =
          0x10.. i.e. a classic straddle.  This reduces the 3-way branch
          condition to a 2-way one. It also means that we can eliminate use
          of the high variable altogether and just use low and range.

2007-02-20 09:39  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Changed
          structure of renormalisation loop to enable optimisation.

2007-02-20 09:24  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.h, arith_codec.cpp: Now updating
          range variable on the fly rather than calculating from low and
          high.

2007-02-20 09:21  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Refacactored
          arithmetic coding so that renormalisation is only performed if
          the interval size is <=1/2 (represented by 0x8000 in 16 bits).
          This condition may be further restricted in future, and other
          changes and optimisations will follow. This change makes
          coding/decoding faster and allows for the high code to be
          eliminated. Watch this space.

2007-01-22 15:53  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/mc.tex: Reorganised the text concerning chroma
          scaling for clarity. Chroma scaling for global motion vectors is
          now achieved by scaling the generated luma field rather than
          scaling the generating matrix and vectors. This will change the

        * libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Fixed bug with unitialised
          cut flag. Changed intra insertion criterion so that a frame is
          made intra if just a third of blocks are intra - this is a better
          bit rate trade-off.

          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fixed memory leak bug, which
          resulted from the encoder not signalling the discarded reference
          frames correctly. The reference management and FrameBuffer class
          code still need some work to rationalise.

          The decoder still does not support the spec requirement for
          discarding old reference frames if the reference frame buffer
          gets too big. This would prevent memory leaks (at the risk of
          incorrect decoding) if the encoder were to signal reference
          discarding incorrectly in this manner.

          at low bit rates. Changes to the RDO parameters are experimental
          and they may change again.

          - Added test for whether a frame is a B frame or not - Identified
          Layer 1 frames with P frames and Layer 2 with B frames, rather
          than with Inter Ref and Inter Non-ref respectively. This is more
          efficient with the new GOP structure - Modified RDO framework to
          provide correction where there has been ME failure i.e. lots of
          Intra blocks - Slightly increased ME search areas - Corrected the
          frame type parameter for the final B frame in a sequence -
          Changed confusing terminology for costs/errors in quantisation
          factor selection - Added overall PSNR stats for a sequence for
          performance comparisons

        * doc/latex_spec/: arith.tex, dataenc.tex, motion-dec.tex,
          wlt-dec.tex: Fixed bug in specification of inverse quantisation.
          Changed default arithmetic decoding padding value to 1 from 0, so
          after reading in LENGTH bytes, a value of 1 is used from that
          point. This should support early termination i.e.  encode only
          the first few values in a subband and then the decoder will
          correctly decode the remainder as 0, but this is as yet untested.

2006-10-30 14:57  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.cpp: Fixed bug so that the decoder
          can now append any data to the end of the arithmetically encoded
          block and still decode correctly. Default padding data is all 1s
          - this should make a null or terminated subband decode with
          zeroes.

          changed the prediction for DC values to take account of the fact
          that they may be negative. These changes change the bitstream.

          prediction.

          retired by the decoder once they are displayed.

          Clarified frame type parameters so as to be sure they always
          agree. This will need further refactoring.

          Reference frames are now cleaned from the buffer _after_ being
          the current frame has been decoded, as per the spec. This allows
          slightly more flexible GOP structures.

          been changed so that instead of coding all the prediction modes
          first and then all the motion data, prediction modes are included
          in the motion data as per the spec.

          An updated version of the latex spec in which the Common mode is
          omitted is in preparation and will be committed in the next
          couple of weeks.

          figs/sequence.eps, figs/superblock-16pu.eps,
          figs/superblock-1pu.eps, figs/superblock-4pu.eps: Updated and
          refactored data access and coefficient decoding sections.  Spec
          should be up to date and accurate for coefficient decoding, but
          fine-tuning and checking is required. Diagrams also needed.

          Major change is in the way arithmetic decoding operations are
          called. Just specify sets of contexts to be used for follow bits,
          data bits and the sign by passing indices into the state
          variable, which maintains the contexts.

          This simplifies the code in the stream syntax, avoiding local
          copies etc.  Explanation will be required for the context
          indices. The arithmetic decoding section needs updating to
          reflect this change and use of interleaved exp- Golomb coding.

2006-07-07 08:56  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/layout-fullsize.tex: Added temporary environment
          pseudo* for documenting _part_ of a function's pseudocode (no
          function header).  Fixed bug where \bsRET reduces indent by 1 -
          this broke indentation when there were a number of returns in a
          function.

2006-07-06 12:29  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, band_codec.h: Changed coding of

          codeblock, as per Tim's stream syntax, rather than differential
          with respect to the subband quantiser index.

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.h, mv_codec.cpp, mv_codec.h: Added
          En/DecodeUInt and En/DecodeSInt functions to the arithmetic codec
          class. These functions read and write signed and unsigned
          integers in a unified way. They are used to replace the acres of
          duplicated code in mv_codec.cpp. This change also had the happy
          side effect of removing the need for a whole slew of chooseXXX
          functions used for selecting the arithmetic coding context.

          we are not going past array boundaries.

2006-06-06 17:08  asuraparaju

        * unit_tests/motion_comp_test.cpp: Remove tests for frame equality
          after motion estimation because rounding errors can mean that the
          frames are not equal. However the frame equality is still tested
          after zero motion compensation.

2006-06-06 17:08  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_byteio/mvdata_byteio.cpp, libdirac_common/common.h:

          motion_arrows.cpp, motion_colour.cpp, motion_colour_arrows.cpp,
          overlay.cpp, pred_mode.cpp, sad.cpp, split_mode.cpp: [Spec
          compliance] Ensure that the instrumentation utility works for
          true 8 bit data. Note that there is no support at present for
          non-8bit data.

2006-06-05 15:56  asuraparaju

          diagnostics input file.

2006-06-05 15:55  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/quality_monitor.cpp: [Spec compliance] Adjust
          lambda values to make them bit-depth agnostic. Tested only on 8
          bit input data. Need to test and maybe adjust for other
          bit-depths.

2006-06-05 15:55  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: [Spec compliance] Default
          Video depth is 8 bits.

        * libdirac_common/: wavelet_utils.cpp, wavelet_utils.h,
          wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp: [Spec compliance] Accuracy bits are
          required in the wavelet analysis stage. The number of bits
          required depends on the transform depth.  Shift the input data up
          1 bit to the right to increase accuracy in the Analyis stage.
          Round the input data down by 1 bit in the Synthesis stage to
          counter the shift in the analysis stage. All rounding is unbiased
          irrespective of the number of bit it is rounded to. The
          perceptual weights are adjusted for each subband depending on the
          level of the subband.

          input/output is always true bit depth specified by video-depth
          and not converted to 10 bit data internally.  So no need to shift
          8 bit data by two to convert it to 10 bits.

          calculating number of code blocks for different transform depths.

2006-06-05 15:52  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arrays.h: [Spec Compliance] PIXEL_VALUE_MIN and
          PIXEL_VALUE_MAX no longer required as the min and max values are
          calculated based on the bit-depth of the input video. Fix
          indentation by replacing tabs with white space.

2006-06-05 15:51  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_byteio/transform_byteio.cpp: Fixed bug where the
          non-default wavelet filter flag was not being written to the
          bitstream when a non-default filter is used.

        * libdirac_byteio/seqparams_byteio.cpp: [Spec compliance] Throw an
          error if a video depth other than the default value of 8 is
          specified.

2006-06-05 15:51  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_byteio/frame_byteio.cpp: [Spec compliance] Actual
          picture number is stored in the picture header and not the offset
          from the Access unit picture number. Reference frame offsets and
          retired frame offsets are calculated from current picture number
          and not access unit header picture number.

2006-06-05 15:50  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_byteio/byteio.h: Fix warnings in doxygen documentation.

2006-06-05 15:50  asuraparaju

          precision type in test prototype from int to MVPrecisionType.

2006-05-16 14:53  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp: Changed the wavelet
          transform so that unbiased rounding is not used with a shift of 1
          in the lifting stage to keep in line with the non-MMX optimised
          code.

2006-05-16 12:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix g++ warnings

2006-05-16 12:24  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/quant_chooser.cpp: Minor mods to speed up error
          calculation. Overall improvement in encoding speed is about 4-5%
          for long gop Changed quantisation as per draft spec so that extra
          2 bits accuracy apply to the quantisation offset. This helps at
          low quantisation factors particularly.

2006-05-16 12:24  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/: quality_monitor.cpp, quality_monitor.h: -
          Removed superfluous filtering function.  - Computes PSNR instead
          of weighted 4th power metric; chroma PSNRs are also   computed.

2006-05-16 12:24  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Spec Compliance: - Setup
          default code blocks depending on whether frame type is intra or

          libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.h: Spec Compliance - multiple
          quantisers are used when code block mode is set to
          QUANT_MULTIPLE - All values are set to 0 if a block is skipped
          irrespective of whether is   is a DC block or not.  - Modified
          SetupCodeBlocks functions to use the default code blocks if
          default partitioning is enabled or values of from the bitstream
          for custom   paritioning (only for decoder)

2006-05-16 12:19  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/band_codec.cpp: Spec Compliance: - Code block
          skip flag encoded/decoded only if there is more than one code
          block in a subband - The sign flag is encoded/decoded as true if
          the value is negative.  - Max number of quantisers increased to
          97 (0..96). Throw an error if   quantisation index exceeds this
          value while decoding.  - Changed quantisation as per draft spec
          so that extra 2 bits accuracy   apply to the quantisation offset.
          This helps at low quantisation factors   particularly.

2006-05-15 12:43  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mv_codec.cpp, mv_codec.h: [Thomas's changes]
          Changed coding of MB split so that it's bitwise, with bitwise
          prediction.  This is more efficient and is consistent with coding
          prediction modes.

2006-05-15 12:43  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/common.h: [Thomas's changes] Changed coding of MB
          split so that it's bitwise, with bitwise prediction.  This is
          more efficient and is consistent with coding prediction modes.

          Changed quantisation to give 2 bits of accuracy to quantisation
          factors.  This improves performance in high-quality applications,
          and reduces large steps in quality.

2006-05-15 12:42  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/common.cpp, libdirac_encoder/quant_chooser.cpp:
          [Thomas's changes] Changed quantisation to give 2 bits of

          restructure of Input/Output classes in Dirac internals. New
          directory, libdirac_byteio contains classes to input from/output
          to a Dirac bistream.

          Dirac external API (both encoder and decoder) has changed. So the
          patches for MPlayer, FFmpeg, and the Dirac Directshow filter will
          no longer work with the CVS source. The external API is likely to
          change over the next few weeks.  Updated versions of the patches
          and Direcshow filter will be available with the next release of
          Dirac.

          NOTE: the bytestream has changed to largely conform to the latest
          Dirac spec.  More work needs to be done to conform fully to the
          Dirac definition document. So expect the CVS source and resulting
          bitstream to change frequently over the next few weeks.

          libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Changing binarisation for
          arithmetic coding, and associated contexts.  The specification
          will be modified accordingly.

          Binarisation for the magnitude values of wavelet coefficients,
          motion vector prediction residues and DC values has been changed
          from unary to interleaved exp-Golomb so that the number of
          symbols to be decoded in order to reconstruct a coefficient is
          reduced. Exp-Golomb binarisation takes a number N>=0 and codes it
          via the binary representation of N+1, 1bbbbbb. If there are K
          bits following the leading 1, the representation is K zeroes
          followed by the binary representation:

          00...01bbbbb Interleaved exp-Golomb is the same, except that the
          K lsbs are interleaved with the zeroes: 0b0b   0b1 so that a
          single decoding loop can be used. The zeroes here act as "follow
          bits" indicating that another bit is to be sent, with 1 as the
          terminator.

          Contexts for coding these symbols are selected for the follow
          bits and other bits ("information bits") separately. Compression
          performance is hardly affected, nor is speed performance in
          software, but hardware performance is greatly facilitated.

2006-04-12 16:06  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Changed while loops for decoding
          and encoding into fixed-size for-loops with break conditions.
          Although ugly, this provides safer code as loops will terminate
          if there's an error.

        * unit_tests/motion_comp_test.cpp: Set number of references in
          MvData constructor to fix compilation errors.

2006-04-10 11:13  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/band_codec.cpp: Changed lookup table-based
          division to a straight division. This is slightly slower, but
          will scale to higher levels of wavelet decomposition.  Also
          eliminates bug with occasional wrap-around for lossless coding on
          some pictures. Making abs_val 64 bits would also work but could
          be equally slow on 32 bit architectures.

2006-03-20 12:54  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp, libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed
          bug in writing instrumentation data to output which always
          assumed that data for two references were available.

          coding so that residues for reference 2 are not generated when we
          are only using one reference.  THIS CHANGES THE BYTESTREAM This
          reduces the bit rate by a few bits, but the reason for doing it
          is becuase it makes the codec more logical.  Also modified
          BlockModePrediction so that it doesn't do a prediction for
          reference 2 when we are only using one reference.  Removed some
          unnecessary memory allocation in MvData constructor.  Removed a
          few warning messages and tidied up a bit.

2006-03-01 18:19  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Rationalised
          types used i.e. replaced all code_t, calc_t etc with unsigned
          int. Simplified the code by removing one addition and shift from
          DecodeSymbol.

2006-02-28 15:53  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.cpp: Fixed g++ warning when compiled
          in debug mode

        * libdirac_common/Makefile.am,
          win32/VS2003/libdirac_common/libdirac_common.vcproj: Added
          arith_codec.cpp to list of .cpp files

2006-02-28 15:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Refactored code
          to make implementation easier to understand. The code restructure
          modified the bitstream but older version of arith_codec can
          decode this new version and vice-versa.

2006-02-21 13:32  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Modified arithmetic coding engine
          for speed and spec conformance.  1. Changed context statistics so
          that maximum weight is 256 2. Changed look-up table so that
          inverse of weight is calculated to 16 instead of 31 bits.  3.
          Changed scaled count of zero m_prob0 so that it's 16 bits instead
          of 10

          Changes 1-3 mean that m_prob0 can be worked out using only 16 bit
          multiplies and no bitshift. This is more hardware friendly.

          4. Modified do .. while loop for encoding and decoding so that a
          more efficient test for MSB equality can be used, resulting in a
          speed-up 5. Changed the order of decoding so that bits are
          shifted in first and then the symbol is determined. This reduces
          unnecessary bit inputs and moves to a 'lazy' input mode 6.
          Changed the statistics update function so that m_prob0 is
          calculated for every update rather than every other. This speeds
          up the code and gives better compression performance.

2006-02-15 14:27  asuraparaju

        * tests/samples.at: Included  block variables so that tests can be

          that it has an integer number of whole macro blocks and is also a
          multiple of 2^(wavelet transform depth). This has changed in the
          Dirac specification where a frame is padded so that its
          dimensions are a multiple of 2^(wavelet transform depth) only.
          Also the luma and the chroma components can be padded
          differently. E.g. the luma dimensions may be a perfect multiple
          of 2^(wavelet transform depth) so the luma component is not
          padded but the chroma component may need to be padded depending
          on the chroma format of the input.  To take care of this,
          FrameParams class has been modified to accept both padded chroma
          and padded luma dimensions.

          WARNING! This modifies the bitstream.

2006-02-14 12:48  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Changed count rescaling so that it
          occurs every time a bit is encoded/decoded.  This is to make
          compliant with spec, and also because doing it every other bit
          was giving no speed advantage.

          WARNING! This changes the bitstream.

2006-02-10 09:49  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.cpp: Modified calculation of quantisation,

          specification.  WARNING: this modifies the bitstream.

2006-02-09 13:58  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: motion.h, mv_codec.cpp: Removed the function
          for computing a mean of a vector of ints. Instead all means are
          of unsigned int values, and are calculated using unbiased
          arithmetic ie with an offset of N/2 for N values to ensure even
          rounding. This changes the mean used for predicting DC values in
          motion vector coding. As a result, the bitstream is also changed.

2006-01-06 15:56  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp: Changed refresh so that statistics
          are refreshed after m_reset_num macroblocks as intended, rather
          than m_reset_num+1.  WARNING! This changes the bitstream.

2006-01-06 15:22  asuraparaju

          VHFilter5_3::HorizSynth which is used only when MMX opts are
          enabled. This function is used to interleave horizontal synthesis
          with vertical synthesis to make the wavelet syntheis function

2005-12-01 14:10  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp_mmx.cpp: Minor changes to ensure that
          uninitialised memory reads do not cause crashes when compiled
          using MS VC++. Note that the data read from unitialised memory is
          not being used but still causes problems on some platforms.

2005-12-01 14:06  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Using calculated values of blocks
          per macro block row and blocks per sub-block row instead of
          hardcoded values.

          encodebox.cpp, encoder_gui.pro, filesbox.cpp, repthread.cpp,
          tables.h: Included option in GUI to disable the creation of
          diagnostics data file and locally decoded output. dirac_encoder
          need no longer be in the current working directory but in any
          directory in the PATH variable.

2005-11-15 15:35  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Minor cosmetic difference as to
          how CODE_MSB and CODE_2ND_MSB are initialised to make their usage
          more obvious.

2005-11-15 15:33  asuraparaju

          DoWorkDecode and DecodeCoeffBlock functions in the way 2-D arrays
          are accessed which resulted in a slight decoding speed
          improvement.

2005-11-08 11:43  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/upconvert_mmx.cpp: Minor changes to DoUpConverter
          routine to give slight improvement in uoconversion speed.

2005-11-08 11:41  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arrays.h: In Resize function in OneDArray class,
          dealloc and realloc data only if the new and old array sizes are
          different.

2005-11-08 11:40  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: wavelet_utils.cpp, wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp:
          Optimised WaveletTransform::VHFilter5_3::Split using MMX
          instructions. Minor mods to WaveletTransform::VHFilter5_3::Synth
          function improve speed slightly.

        * libdirac_motionest/Makefile.am,
          libdirac_motionest/downconvert.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/downconvert_mmx.cpp,
          win32/VS2003/libdirac_motionest/libdirac_motionest.vcproj:
          Optimised DoDownConverter routine using MMX instructions

2005-11-08 11:34  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp.cpp, mot_comp.h, mot_comp_mmx.cpp:
          Modified motion compensation so that it take Macro-Block
          splitting mode into consideration when compensating a row of
          blocks. Depending on the macroblock split mode, 1,2 or 4 blocks
          of reference data are used to calculate the motion compensated
          data. This sped up the default quarter pixel block motion
          compensation routine by an average of 20-23% for a 2Mbps Dirac
          bitstream.

2005-11-08 11:26  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: frame.cpp, frame.h, frame_buffer.cpp,
          frame_buffer.h: Changes to FrameBuffer handling. Deleting old
          frames and allocating new frames is quite expensive. So instead
          of deleting frames no longer required in the frame buffer, they
          are flagged "not in use". So the next time a new reference frame
          has to be inserted in the Frame buffer, the first frame "not in
          use" is used to store the new frame. An overall improvement of
          6-7 percent in decoding speed for a 2Mbps bitstream resulted.

2005-10-17 12:06  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed bug #1328565. Now
          ensuring that all locally decoded frames are available for
          output.

2005-10-11 14:02  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Incorporated Steve Bearcroft's
          speed-up patch, with some minor typographical changes for
          clarity.

2005-10-11 10:00  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/block_match.cpp: Added patch 1309571 which
          fixes the quality degradation introduced in the motion estimation
          speed-ups.

2005-10-07 11:17  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_utils.cpp, me_utils_mmx.cpp,
          me_utils_mmx.h: Applied MMX optimisations to modified ME
          routines. This is an initial version that improves Motion
          Estimation speed by 30% resulting in a 20% improvement in
          encoding speed overall. This is work in progress.

2005-09-27 14:44  dirac_dev

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.h: Replaced boolean with int.
          C-compilers (eg. ffmpeg) complain about C++ constructs.

2005-09-27 14:08  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/quality_monitor.cpp: Set the motion estimation
          factor to compensate for the default search precision being at
          1/4 pel (as this is the default precision) rather than 1/8th pel.

2005-09-27 14:07  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: motion_estimate.cpp, motion_estimate.h:
          Removed cut detection, which is now in the FrameCompressor class.
          Removed the kludge which scaled the motion vector precisions. All
          motion estimation is now at the selected precision.

2005-09-27 14:01  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_mode_decn.cpp, me_mode_decn.h: Use
          specific matching classes for different pixel accuracies. Reduced
          search ranges for increased speed.

2005-09-27 13:59  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/me_subpel.cpp: Removed calculation of lambda
          map. Simplified class by using the specific subpixel refinement
          matching function.

2005-09-27 13:55  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: pixel_match.cpp, pixel_match.h: Search
          ranges restricted to improve motion estimation speed.

2005-09-27 13:52  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: block_match.cpp, block_match.h: Refactored
          the BlockMatcher class. There are now three functions for finding
          a best match - finding the pixel-accurate best match, refining
          this to sub-pixel accuracy, and also finding a best match from a
          list at sub-pixel level.  These matching functions contain
          shortcuts to speed up matching as follows.

          FindBestMatchPel: - The predictors are each searched first, and
          if their SAD values are small then the search ends.  - bailout
          functions are used for calculating matching costs for the
          remaining candidates

          RefineMatchSubpel: - The predictor from neighbouring (previously
          refined) vectors is tested first. If there's a small SAD, then
          the search ends - Pixel-accurate vectors are refined to half-pel
          vectors by searching the 4 closest half-pel positions (shown as
          X) first:  X XOX  X

          If one of these is better than the pixel-accurate value, then the
          two nearest values in the immediate neighbourhood of the
          pixel-accurate value are also searched, eg the Y values below:

          YXY XOX  X

          This two-stage procedure is followed again in refining to
          quarter- and eighth-pel.  - At each stage of refinement, if we're
          10% worse than the value derived for the predictor, we end the
          search.

          FindBestMatchSubpel: - bailout functions are used

2005-09-27 13:40  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_utils.cpp, me_utils.h: Reorganised
          classes for doing SAD calculations at pixel and sub-pixel
          accuracy. Distinct classes for half-, quarter- and eighth-pixel
          matching have been created. These are present also in 'bailout'
          form so that you can leave the calculation as soon as you know
          that you're not going to beat the best match so far.  These mods
          support speeding up motion estimation, and hence the encoder
          generally.

2005-09-27 12:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed bug# 1291478. Now
          ensuring that dirac_encoder_output returns ENC_STATE_BUFFER when
          data is not loaded into the encoder.

2005-09-27 12:21  asuraparaju

        *
          doc/documentation/code/programmers_guide/decoder_api_functions.htm:
          Bug fix: 1291481. Corrected return value in dirac_parse function
          prototype.

2005-09-27 10:21  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: The quality measurement model
          can only be calculated correctly if reconstructed compressed
          video is available, which isn't the case if we're not doing local
          decoding. In this case, calculating and outputting these values
          is disabled.

2005-09-27 10:16  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: frame_compress.cpp, frame_compress.h: Moved
          the analysis of whether or not we have a cut into FrameCompressor
          class and out of motion estimation classes.

          Also, only do motion compensation on L2 frames if local decoding
          is required.  This is because, by definition, L2 frames can't be
          references and so can be left in a partially reconstructed state
          if local decoding isn't required, which improves encoding speed.

2005-09-27 10:12  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Added support for local
          decoding flag, so that local decoding can be avoided for speed.

2005-09-27 10:09  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Removed commented-out code.

2005-09-27 10:09  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Inverse wavelet transform is
          now only done for L2 frames if local decoding is required. This
          is because L2 frames are (by definition) not used for reference
          and can be left in a partially reconstructed state if local
          decoding isn't needed.

2005-09-27 09:54  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Introduced unbiased rounding into
          calculation of weighting matrices. This allows the subsequent
          rationalisation of the values to be avoided. Also, chroma scale
          factors applied to motion vectors have been replaced by shift
          factors, so that bitshifts can be used instead of divisions for
          greater efficiency.

2005-09-27 09:50  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: common.cpp, common.h: Added support for an
          encode params flag indicating whether we're doing local decoding.
          Local decoding can then be omitted for greater efficiency.

2005-09-27 09:44  tjdwave

        * decoder/decmain.cpp: Made timing info only output in verbose
          mode.

2005-09-27 09:43  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Added timing data for encoding.

2005-09-27 09:40  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Simplified ArithCodec class so
          that probality intervals aren't used.

        * ChangeLog: [no log message]

2005-08-23 11:46  asuraparaju

        * NEWS: Added 0.5.3 release notes

2005-08-23 11:14  asuraparaju

        * doc/documentation.html: Having trouble creating a pdf document in
          which MathML is rendered correctly.  Hence a pdf version of the
          Algorithm document cannot be generated at the moment.  Removed
          broken link to Algorithm pdf until this problem can be fixed.

2005-08-22 13:51  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Update the help string for enable-mmx configure
          argument to make it clear that MMX opts are enabled by default.
          The user will have to explcitly specify --enable-mmmx=no or
          --disable-mmx to disable MMX opts.

          transcode-1.0.0-dirac-0.5.x.patch: Dirac patch for
          transcode-1.0.0. This patch is not a standalone patch and will be
          effective only if the ffmpeg library it uses is built with the
          dirac patch applied.

          cvs snapshot dated 06-Aug-2005. Note that this has been tested
          with CVS versions as late at 16-Aug-2006 but the CVS snapshots
          past 06-Aug-2005 are not available for download on the FFmpeg
          server.

2005-08-19 13:34  asuraparaju

        * extras/patches/README_transcode-0.6.14_dirac-0.5.x_patch: Updated
          for dirac v0.5.3

2005-08-19 13:33  asuraparaju

        * extras/patches/: README_ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1-dirac-0.5.x_patch,
          ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1-dirac-0.5.x.patch: Updated patch for
          dirac-0.5.3. Changed license to LGPL. Fixed bug in setting the
          quality factor where the quality factor lookup table was uint8_t
          instead of float which was causing the qf to be truncated to
          uint8_t.  dirac_decode_frame now correctly returns the number of
          bytes it consumed. This is a fix for bug 1246767.

2005-08-18 09:30  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Clarified CLI error message.

2005-08-18 09:27  tjdwave

          Committing website documentation to CVS

2005-08-15 11:24  asuraparaju

        * doc/faq.htm: Removing unwanted files in doc restructure

2005-08-15 08:34  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Added comment explaining look-up
          table operation.

2005-08-12 11:58  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Include an extra flag to suppress warnings when
          compiling in debug mode using icc.

2005-08-12 11:57  asuraparaju

        * README, README.developers: MMX optimisations are enabled by
          default. Provided instructions as to how to disable it.

2005-08-12 10:26  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/motion.cpp: Reinstated transition detection code.
          This means that mode decision is kinder when a transition in the
          motion vector field is detected, giving better quality in motion
          transition areas.

2005-08-11 11:44  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Added Pete Bleackley's code to use
          a look-up table for division.

2005-08-11 08:21  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.cpp: Added a warning when impossible block
          parameters are being used, and the encoder changes them.

2005-08-10 17:50  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: wavelet_utils.cpp, wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp:
          Optimised 5_3 wavelet synthesis function, VHFilter5_3::Synth,
          using MMX instructions resulting in  6 percent speed improvement
          in decoding SD.

2005-08-10 17:48  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix g++ warning about unused
          variable recode.

2005-08-10 17:47  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Print error message and exit if input and
          output file names are the same.  Changed back cif preset option
          to uppercase. Sequence and encoder params currently being used
          are displayed on standard out before actual coding starts.

2005-08-10 17:45  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: MMX optimisations are enabled by default. Use
          --disable-mmx to explicitly disable them.

2005-08-10 09:13  tjdwave

        * README: Added modified instructions for -qf and advice about
          -width and -height.

2005-08-10 09:06  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/block_match.cpp: Changed motion vector bitrate
          measure so that transitions from foreground to background and
          vice-versa are not penalised.

2005-08-10 09:04  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Removed recoding: superfluous
          now there is no CQ coding.

2005-08-10 09:02  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: quality_monitor.cpp, quality_monitor.h:
          Removed constant quality encoding control mechanism, because it
          worked too poorly for varied sequences. Instead, QualityMonitor
          just monitors quality and encoder control reverts to constant
          Lagrangian parameters.

          The magic numbers chosen may not work for all sequences or all
          video standards but will do for the moment.

2005-08-10 08:57  tjdwave

        * libdirac_decoder/comp_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/frame_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Changed default wavelet
          filters to fast filters APPROX97 and FIVETHREE.  Wavelet filter
          type is now signalled in the frame header so that changing these
          filters just changes the encoder. (This is now consistent with
          the spec).

2005-08-10 08:50  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: motion.cpp, motion.h: Fixed bug with way median
          is calculated. Removed large inline functions from .h and placed
          in .cpp for clarity.

2005-08-10 08:48  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Minor tidy of the way that
          weighting matrices are computed.

2005-08-10 08:44  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: common.cpp, common.h: Removed recode parameter.
          Added a CodecParams parameter for the wavelet filter being used,
          to support signalling this in the bitstream, rather than
          selecting by frame type. (This is in the spec).

2005-08-10 08:42  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: bit_manager.cpp, bit_manager.h: Added support
          for finding out the current size of bit buffers. This will
          support future CBR implementations and calculations of bit rate
          on the fly.

2005-08-10 08:40  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: dirac_encoder.cpp, dirac_encoder.h: Removed
          recode option. Set block parameters for HD720 the same as for SD
          to get around bug 1245129.  Need to fix padding and edge issues
          to fully resolve this bug.

2005-08-10 08:27  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Added feature to print out help if there's
          an unrecognised/unparsed option.  Removed recode feature.

          MMX optimisation.

2005-08-01 17:06  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.cpp: MMX version of Wavelet
          sythesis functions are used if MMX is enabled.

2005-08-01 17:05  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/upconvert.cpp: MMX version of DoUpConverter is
          used if MMX is enabled.

2005-08-01 17:04  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp.cpp, mot_comp.h: Modified the block
          weights to be of type short to make efficient use of MMX
          instructions. Modified CompensateComponente to make more
          efficient use of data in cache. MMX versions of CompensateBlock
          are used if MMX is enabled.

2005-08-01 17:04  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/Makefile.am: Include new mmx optimisation source
          files and headers.

2005-07-26 10:39  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Reduced chroma weighting
          factors in order to increase chroma fidelity - chroma bit rates
          should increase from about 5% of total for 420 to 7.5% of total.
          Changed default block separation for HD720 preset to remove block
          edge overlaps at the top of the screen. This may be returned to
          the old settings when we know why they caused the problem.

        * configure.ac: updated revision to 0.5.3

2005-07-22 18:09  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/bit_manager.h: Updated bitstream version to 0.5

2005-07-22 12:59  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Include macro AC_SYS_LARGEFILE to overcome the 2GB

          -recode [n] is present, then the encoder will recode up to n
          times (ie will encoder up to n+1 times).

2005-07-19 15:17  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp: Fixed bug 1240709. Common
          mode is now used to reduce encoding of prediction modes. Common
          mode was also being set incorrectly in the motion estimation
          process, which caused divergence between the encoder and decoder
          values.  Since common mode wasn't used, this bug was masked
          before. Both now fixed.

2005-07-08 10:26  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: upconvert.cpp, upconvert.h: Incorporated patch
          1211899. This tidies up the code and makes it confirm to dirac
          coding conventions, and also uses a smaller filter. This commit
          differs from the patch in that the filter is not reduced to 6
          taps but is reducted to 10 taps instead.  In the future, variable
          filter coefficients may be supported via templated polymorphism.

          now be flagged either per Prediction Unit or per Macro-Block.

          Also, the use of a Common Mode for each Macro-Block is now
          possible. (This had not been fully implemented before.)

        * libdirac_encoder/quality_monitor.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/block_match.cpp: Fixed bug with computing MV
          costs. Incorporated patch 1216297 for quality measurement.

2005-06-10 11:52  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Changed default block height
          and width for motion compensation to 24 by 24 pixels from 20 by
          20. Separation remains 16 by 16. The result is reduced blockiness
          in areas of poor motion prediction. Downside is slower encoder,
          but the block parameters are merely scaled-up versions of the SD
          parameters.

        * extras/patches/ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1-dirac-0.5.x.patch: Fixed bug

          context before setting frame size. Also fixed a bug where quality
          factor was not being set correctly.

2005-05-24 08:28  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fixed bug with count increment
          so that fast adaption takes place on first recoding rather than
          second.

2005-05-20 15:30  asuraparaju

        * README: Modified this file to remove all references to image
          header files which are no longer required.

          arguments.

2005-05-20 15:01  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp, libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp,

2005-05-20 14:05  asuraparaju

        * Makefile.am, configure.ac: make_header utility is no longer
          required. So removing picheader directory from list of targets.

2005-05-20 13:44  asuraparaju

        * tests/: colourbars.at, create_dirac_testfile.pl, samples.at:
          Remove all references to make_header. Sequence header information
          is now passed to encoder on the command line.

2005-05-20 13:43  asuraparaju

        * util/instrumentation/instrmain.cpp: The encoder now writes
          sequence header information to the instrumentation output file.
          So read sequence info from instrumentation file.

2005-05-20 13:42  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Fix g++ errors. Write the sequence header
          information to the instrumentation file.

2005-05-20 13:41  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: pic_io.cpp, pic_io.h: Delete all code relating
          to header file creation/reading. All sequence parameters are now
          supplied to encoder via the command line.

2005-05-19 12:23  dirac_dev

        * decoder/decmain.cpp: Removed any references to header files.

2005-05-19 12:15  dirac_dev

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Removed requirement of a header file. All
          parameters are handled through command-line options. Most options
          will still be set by the pre-set option, although they can be
          overriden.

2005-05-19 12:03  asuraparaju

        * unit_tests/motion_comp_test.cpp: Update motion compensation tests
          to use the helper function in MotionCompensator to instantiate
          the MotionCompensator sub-class for the mv precision value
          selected.

2005-05-19 11:56  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_decoder/: frame_decompress.cpp, frame_decompress.h: Now
          reads the MV precision in the frame header.

2005-05-19 11:35  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Writing the motion vector
          precision value as part of frame header. Default mv precision is
          set to 2 i.e. quarter pixel.

2005-05-19 11:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils_mmx.cpp: Fixed C/C++ aliasing
          violations that caused a performance slow down when compiled with
          gcc 4.0.0

2005-05-19 11:24  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils.h: Fixed gcc 4.0.0 warnings

2005-05-19 11:23  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/bit_manager.h: Updated bitstream version to 0.4

2005-05-19 11:21  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: common.cpp, common.h: Added a field to
          CodecParams class for motion vector precision. A value of 'n'
          implies a precision of (2**-n)i pixel. i.e. a value of 2 implies
          an mv precision of 1/4 i.e. quarter pixel.

2005-05-19 11:16  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp.cpp, mot_comp.h: Added support for
          multiple levels of motion vector precision - pixel, half pixel,
          quarter pixel and multiple pixel. The main MotionCompensator
          class is an abstract class. Each of its sub-classes define the
          CompensateBlock function to a particular level of motion
          precision.

2005-05-19 11:12  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_mode_decn.cpp, me_subpel.cpp,
          motion_estimate.cpp: Motion estimation modified to support
          variable motion vector precision. The implementation is
          preliminary, and should be modified later: vectors are scaled by
          a factor 8 to give a maximum of eighth-pel accuracy. Generic
          block matching functions are used at this accuracy even though
          true accuracy will be less - the subpixel search is merely
          truncated.

          In the future, half-pixel and quarter-pixel block matching
          functions should be written, just as for motion compensation as
          these will be faster.

          units can now use either global or block motion. (Decision based
          on similarity of global and block motion vectors.)

2005-05-11 10:13  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.cpp: Fixed -pedantic errors on
          unused variables. Replaced dynamic built-in array (which violates
          ISO C++) with array class.

2005-05-05 15:10  tjdwave

        * unit_tests/wavelet_utils_test.cpp: Added support for testing all
          different wavelet transforms for invertibility.

2005-05-04 14:35  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.h, libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.cpp,

          libdirac_decoder/comp_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Modifications to support
          different wavelet filter types.

          wavelet_utils.{cpp,h} Added three new filter types with lifting
          implementations, all much faster than Daubechies (9,7).
          Refactored the code to support filter selection in constructor of
          WaveletTransform class. Added method to correctly output DC band
          expected values. Separated off coefficient interleaving and
          deinterleaving. Setting of subband weights is now a
          WaveletTransform function, as noise weighting factors depend on
          the filter choice.

          band_codec.cpp Removed literal constant and used 0 instead for
          top-left DC value prediction.

          comp_compress.cpp, comp_decompress.cpp Changed default filters
          from Daubechies (9,7) to faster filters which perform almost as
          well. This is a temporary mod. It is intended to be able to
          select fast filters via the CLI and for wavelet filter choices to
          be signalled in frame headers. This will be done in later
          refactoring to converge with the bitstream syntax in terms of
          frame types and header information.

        * libdirac_common/frame.cpp: Included an MMX implementation of
          Frame::ClipComponent to achieve a decoding speedup in conjuction
          with mot_comp.cpp changes. Also using pointer arithmetic insted
          of index operator when accessing TwoDArray objects.

2005-04-13 16:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils_mmx.cpp: Using pointer arithmetic
          instead of the index operator when using TwoDArray objects to get
          an overall slight improvement in encoding speed.

2005-04-13 16:16  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Partially applied patch 1151976.
          Using pointer arithmetic instead of index operator to access
          TwoDArray objects. A few other tweaks to improve cache locality.

2005-04-13 16:09  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/quant_chooser.cpp: Fix errors reported by
          MIPSPro C++ compiler regarding not specifiying the namespace for
          math functions like floor and log.

2005-04-13 16:06  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Fix g++ warning re unused
          variables.

2005-04-13 16:06  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Included icc compile time flag -wr964 to treat
          warning 964 as a remark when mmx is enabled.

2005-04-12 11:56  timborer

        * doc/DiracSpecV0.1.doc: Modifed default Motion Vector precision
          (now 1/4 pel), added note that max MV precision should be
          included in Level. Corrected typos.

2005-04-06 15:31  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, band_codec.h, mv_codec.cpp,
          mv_codec.h: Oops. Correct files now uploaded.

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, band_codec.h, mv_codec.cpp,
          mv_codec.h: Changes to reflect mods to arith_codec.h: in
          particular, Update is removed as this is no longer a virtual
          function. Instead the base class function is called directly in
          the encoding/decoding engines.

2005-04-06 15:07  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Speed-up to arithmetic coding and
          decoding, using probability range renormalisation to avoid
          unnecessary divides.

2005-04-05 14:56  timborer

        * doc/DiracSpecV0.1.doc: Initial draft of Dirac spec. This is not a
          specification of what we have but a proposed spec for what we
          want. At the moment it focuses on syntax rather than semantics.
          It is inkorect and incomplet.

          for building with MMX optimisation enabled.

2005-02-15 11:38  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Update release id to 0.5.1. Added flag to enable
          MMX optimisation and test for checking if MMX optimising is
          available. Default opt level changed to -O3 for g++ and icc.
          Added extra optimisation flags when compiling with g++.  Fixed
          cppunit availability check to report linker errors so that shared
          library mismatches are trapped.

2005-02-15 11:33  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Modified error messages to output more
          information.

2005-02-15 11:31  asuraparaju

        * tests/: Makefile.am, create_dirac_testfile.pl, samples.at,
          testsuite.at: A new script to generate dirac test data of
          different chroma formats from source RGB format input data. A new
          testcase, samples.at, which looks for Dirac test data in the
          directory specified by the env variable DIRAC_INPUT_DATA_DIR.
          The script and testcase are useful to run end-to-end tests using
          all input formats supported by Dirac.

2005-02-15 11:21  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/: Makefile.am, me_utils.cpp, me_utils_mmx.cpp,

2005-02-08 14:02  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Replaced delete with delete[] in
          destructor. Added clean-up in data reading so that the class can
          be re-used without causing a memory leak.

2005-02-07 12:12  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/comp_decompress.cpp: Fixed bug where blocks of
          coefficients with zero dimensions were being generated. There's
          now a minimum size of 4x4 coefficients for a code block.

2005-02-02 15:29  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h, libdirac_common/band_codec.cpp,
          libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp,

2005-02-02 15:24  dirac_dev

        *
          win32/VS2003/DiracEncoder/libdirac_encoder/libdirac_encoder.vcproj:
          Added quant_chooser.cpp/h

2005-02-02 14:50  tjdwave

        * libdirac_decoder/: comp_decompress.cpp, comp_decompress.h: Added
          support for multiple code blocks/quantisers. Added separate
          function for reading header.

2005-02-02 14:49  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/Makefile.am: Modded to add quant_chooser.{cpp,h}

2005-02-02 14:47  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: comp_compress.cpp, comp_compress.h,
          quality_monitor.cpp, quality_monitor.h: Removed quantiser
          selection from comp_compress to another class.

2005-02-02 14:46  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: quant_chooser.cpp, quant_chooser.h: Modified
          author details.

2005-02-02 14:44  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: quant_chooser.cpp, quant_chooser.h: Added
          classes to handle selecting quantisers. These allow a single
          quantiser per subband to be chosen, or alternatively one for each
          code block.

2005-02-02 14:42  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, common.cpp, mv_codec.cpp,
          wavelet_utils.cpp, arith_codec.h, band_codec.h, common.h,
          mv_codec.h, wavelet_utils.h: Modified wavelet coeff coding to
          code blocks of coefficients. with skip flags if all coefficients
          are zero. Wavelet coefficient coding has reduced use of class
          member variables for clarity. The arithmetic coding and decoding
          engines have been modified to improve speed and code
          organisation. The decoder now reads in all the data before
          beginning decoding. Coding of motion vector data has been tidied,
          and modified to accommodate changes in the arithmetic coding
          engine. Block prediction modes are now coded slightly
          differently, which improves compression performance.

2005-01-24 16:58  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.h, libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp,
          libdirac_common/mv_codec.h, libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp:
          Changed prediction of block modes to be bitwise - bit 0 indicates
          the presence of a Ref1 MV, and bit 1 indicated the presence of a
          Ref2 MV. This is also reflected in selecting modes in motion
          estimation.

2005-01-24 16:06  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp: Re-instituted bi-directional
          prediction, inadvertently commented out.

2005-01-24 14:43  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: block_match.cpp, block_match.h,
          me_subpel.cpp: Made local motion vector variance a member
          function of the block matcher, and made the cut-off limits depend
          on the picture size. This improves performance at HD by 4% or so.

          related files to list of targets

2004-11-26 13:28  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Modified check for cppunit test framework to ensure
          that it can run without errors. This was required because unit
          tests fail when built with icc. This is a temporary measure until
          it is determined why unit tests fail when built with icc on
          linux.

2004-11-22 13:57  asuraparaju

        * dirac.pc.in: After the library restructuring, only two libraries
          are required - the encoder and decoder libraries.

2004-11-22 13:57  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Added libtool support to build libraries.

2004-11-22 13:56  asuraparaju

        * INSTALL: Minor changes related to the main configure file and the
          flags to use

2004-11-22 13:56  asuraparaju

        * README: Added descrition of additional flags available at
          configure time

2004-11-22 13:54  asuraparaju

          util/instrumentation/Makefile.am,
          util/instrumentation/libdirac_instrument/Makefile.am: Instead of
          4 libraries only two libraries are now built and installed -
          libdirac_encoder and libdirac_decoder. Only the public "C" API
          headers and libraries are copied to the installation directories
          when 'make install' is used.  Now using libtool to build
          libraries. On GNU/Linux and UNIX-like platforms, shared and
          static versions of the exported libraries are built.      On MS
          Windows platforms, only shared libraries or static libraries can
          be built but not both.

2004-11-22 13:51  asuraparaju

        * tests/: Makefile.am, colourbars.at, unittests.at: Added valgrind
          support while running tests. The 'make valgrind-check' command
          now runs valgrind memory checks on all the tests. Note that the
          tests take a very long time to run in this mode

2004-11-22 13:50  asuraparaju

        * util/: Makefile.am, conversion/Makefile.am: Include Id tag to

          functionality is in the namespace dirac_instr.

2004-11-22 13:39  asuraparaju

        * util/instrumentation/: process_sequence.cpp, process_sequence.h:
          Replace all refrences to PicInput and PicOutput classes with
          FileStreamInput and FileStreamOutput classes. m_zl (number of
          frames in sequence) is no longer part of the Sequence header.
          Changed function ProcessSequence::DoSequence to work around this.

2004-11-22 13:39  asuraparaju

        * util/instrumentation/instrmain.cpp: Replaces all references to
          PicInput and PicOutput classes with FileStreamInput and

          SequenceCompressor class to separate frame loading and frame
          compression functionality into two different functions. This was
          necessary to implement the "C" interface to the encoder. Added
          new access functions, GetFrameEncoded and GetMEData(), to return
          the latest frame encoded and the motion estimation data
          associated with it. Added function EndSequence that writes end of
          sequence information the the output bitstream.  Added namespace
          support. All core Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:35  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/: frame_compress.cpp, frame_compress.h: Motion
          Estimation data is no longer written to a file. Instead, added
          new functions, IsMEDataAvail and GetMEdata,  to enable class user
          to access the Motion Estimation data.  Added namespace support.
          All core Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:34  asuraparaju

        * decoder/decmain.cpp, libdirac_decoder/dirac_parser.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/dirac_parser.h: Moved structures common to the
          encoder and decoder "C" interfaces into
          librac_common/dirac_types.h

2004-11-22 13:30  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/bit_manager.h: Updated the bit stream version
          since the the bitstream in release 0.5.0 differs from the
          bitstream in version 0.4.x.  Added namespace support. All core
          Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

        * libdirac_common/: pic_io.cpp, pic_io.h: Restructured the PicIO
          classes so that in addition to file io streams, memory based io
          streams are also supported. Replaced PicInput and PicOutput
          classes with FileStreamInput and FileStreamOutput classes.

2004-11-22 13:28  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/dirac_assertions.cpp: Modified dirac_assert
          function always dump core irrespetive of whether the code was

        * libdirac_common/dirac_types.h: New header file to hold structures
          common to the Dirac Encoder and Decoder public "C" API

2004-11-04 12:54  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Setting original frame dimensions to
          codec_params for global motion

2004-11-04 12:54  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arrays.h: Applied patch 1055707 and extended it
          to use memcpy for assigment = and copy constructor in both One-D
          and Two-D arrays.

2004-11-04 12:53  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/common.h: Including original frame dimensions in

        * libdirac_common/: wavelet_utils.cpp, wavelet_utils.h: Refactored
          wavelet transform (again). Code now does re-ordering separately
          so that all the wavelet lifting stages can be done with in-place
          calculation.  All loops traverse contiguous data in memory to
          facilitate future vectorisation.

2004-11-04 12:52  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Fixed bug 1055692 which was
          caused by integer overflow when calculating the quality based on
          4th powers of error. The integer overflow resulted in attempting
          to determine the square root of a negative number which caused
          the encoder to go into a permanent loop when using gcc 3.4.2.
          Modified the Mean Square Error calculation to use double instead
          of int type to fix this bug.

2004-11-04 12:52  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils.cpp: Applied patch 1055714. Now the
          Difference calculator uses a CalcValueType accumulator rather
          than float.

          valgrind in function MEData::FindTransitions.  This was causing
          the encoder to seg fault when using video of size 352x576.  (Bug#
          1050757)

2004-10-21 15:26  asuraparaju

          quality_monitor.h, seq_compress.cpp: Handling new start codes and
          bitstream version.  Fixed bug in quality monitor code where
          padding area was taken into account in calculating PSNR. Removed
          unused code for calculating weighted PSNR.  Removed commented
          output from quality monitor.  Instrumentation update: outputs all
          MEData members and copes with monochrome sequences.

          functions for runtime testing in debug mode. Two new macros are
          defined.

          ASSERT( exp ) - if exp resolves to false, the program prints the
          line number and file where the assertion failure occured. In
          debug mode the program exits immediately dumping core.

          ASSERT( exp, mesg ) - if exp resolves to false, the program
          prints the line number, file name where the assertion failure
          occured and mesg. In debug mode the program exits immediately

2004-08-11 15:20  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/common_types.h: Moved enumerated types common to
          the encoder, decoder and codec interfaces from common.h into this
          file to avoid duplication of declarations.

2004-08-11 15:16  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_decoder/: decoder_types.h, dirac_cppparser.cpp,
          dirac_cppparser.h, dirac_parser.cpp, dirac_parser.h: These new
          files define the  "C" interface to the decoder. The bitstream has
          been modified to be able to parse it for decoding.

          BitStream Changes:

          The new dirac bit stream is as follows <sequence-start-code>
          <sequence header> <frame-start-code> <frame 1 data> .  .  .
          <frame-start-code> <frame n data> <sequence-end-code>

          Sequence start code: Each sequence begins with a 5 bytes start
          code 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0xB3

          Frame start code: Each frame begins with a 5 bytes frame start
          code  0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0xB4

          Sequence End code: Each sequence ends with a 5 bytes sequence end
          code 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0xB7

          Not a start code flag: If the arithmetic codec ouputs the start
          code prefix 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04, 0xFF is inserted into the
          bitstream to flag that this is the output of the Arithmetic codec
          and not a start code.

2004-08-11 14:27  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Added a new option --enable-profile to include the
          profiling option -pg to them compile line. Setting up CXXFLAGS
          correctly for Intel compiler when the --enable-debug option is
          used.

          libdirac_common, libdirac_encoder, libdirac_motionest:     Added
          lifting classes for wavelet transform. Refactored motion
          estimation to make logic clearer, and added separate
          pixel-accurate matching classes.  Put in a longer temporal filter
              in QualityMonitor class to reduce oscillation and changed
          motion     estimation Lagrangian parameter to improve
          performance.  TO DO:     tune ME parameter for each picture
          size/block size combination.

          libdirac_common:     Corrected bug with lifting functions not
          returning a value.      Modified MvData class to make member
          variables private.

          libdirac_encoder:     Modified ME lambda value to improve
          performance.

          libdirac_decode, libdirac_encoder, libdirac_motionest,
          libdirac_common:     Modified MvData class to make member
          variables private. Created     MEData class as a subclass of
          MvData for use in motion estimation.

          libdirac_commonm libdirac_encoder:     Refactored output classes
          to create classes for unit, frame and     sequence output, where
          a unit is a subband or MV data, and consists of     a header and
          subsequent data. Output can only be effected at the     sequence
          level and occurs only after a whole frame of data has been
          accumulated.  This will allow for frames to be re-coded before
          being     output if their quality is not satisfactory.

             explaining constant- quality encoding using -qf.

          Makefile.am: Changed order of make, so that utilities can use the
                  common (and other) libraries.

          libdirac_common:     Changed EncoderParams to include a quality
            parameter for constant-quality encoding. Changed perceptual
          weighting to use an extension of CCIR 959 weights, with extra
          weight for DC band, and lower weights for chroma bands.

              Modified enumerated type CompSort to avoid name clashes by
          using
              longer names. Refactored OLBParams class to have private
          member variables
              and access functions.

          libdirac_encoder:     Added QualityMonitor class to do
          constant-quality     encoding. Class looks at difference between
          locally decoded and     original frames and adjusts Lagrangian
          parameters appropriately.      Simplified interface for encoding
          results, where a single quality      parameter is specified.

          libdirac_decoder     FrameDecompressor::Decompress now returns
          true upon success and false     upon failure.

          encoder/encmain.cpp:     Simplified interface for encoding
          results, where a single quality     parameter is specified.

            $Revision$

          -  Included the following CVS tags in all source and header files
             $Id$    $Name$

          -  Included a new configuration option, --enable-debug, in
          configure.ac. This    option turns on the flags '-Wall -pedantic
          -Werror' to trap warnings.

          -  Modified parameter classes in common.{h,cpp} to make member
          variables    private and accessible through class methods. Traced
          through codec.

          -  Deleted context.h. The classes that were originally in this
          file have been    integrated as nested classes into ArithCodec
          class in arith_codec.h

          -  Fixed bug on QCIF coding. The number of downconversions during
             hierarchical motion estimation is now limited based on the
          size of the    picture

          -  Changed decoder and encoder params to be references throughout
          frame and    component (de)compression rather than being copied.

          -  Code cleansed to follow coding standards specified in
          README.developers.     - Changed names of member variables to use
          m_ convention     - Used spaces to improve readability of code
           - Accessing class member variables through accessor/mutator
          function rather       than directly     - Non-trivial member
          functions moved from headers to .cpp files

             Changes mainly in the following directories:
             libdirac_common
             libdirac_decoder
             libdirac_encoder

          -  Fixed g++ compiler warnings

2004-06-22 11:10  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.h: Modified doxygen comments to
          match the declaration of member function SetBandWeights in class
          WaveletTransform.

2004-06-22 11:08  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Fixed compilation errors caused by trying to

          classes to avoid duplication. Made consequential minor mods to
          seq_{de}compress and frame_{de}compress code.  Revised motion
          compensation to use built-in arrays for weighting matrices and to
          enforce their const-ness.  Removed unnecessary memory
          (de)allocations from Frame class copy constructor and assignment
          operator.

          tools for converting between uncompressed picture formats. All
          conversions use uncompressed RGB as an intermediate format.
          There is a known bug with the colour matrixing which applies a
          gain when going from YUV to RGB and back again. This will be
          fixed in a subsequent release.

          of the spec. Having an offset of 0.5*quantiser for intra frames
          improves performance at high rate, especially iterated coding
          with Dirac Pro apps.

          libdirac_motionest/pixel_match.cpp: Overall improvements to
          encoding framework to improve quality for difficult pictures and
          at low bit rates. Changes to the RDO parameters are experimental
          and they may change again.

          - Added test for whether a frame is a B frame or not - Identified
          Layer 1 frames with P frames and Layer 2 with B frames, rather
          than with Inter Ref and Inter Non-ref respectively. This is more
          efficient with the new GOP structure - Modified RDO framework to
          provide correction where there has been ME failure i.e. lots of
          Intra blocks - Slightly increased ME search areas - Corrected the
          frame type parameter for the final B frame in a sequence -
          Changed confusing terminology for costs/errors in quantisation
          factor selection - Added overall PSNR stats for a sequence for
          performance comparisons

        * doc/latex_spec/: arith.tex, dataenc.tex, motion-dec.tex,
          wlt-dec.tex: Fixed bug in specification of inverse quantisation.
          Changed default arithmetic decoding padding value to 1 from 0, so
          after reading in LENGTH bytes, a value of 1 is used from that
          point. This should support early termination i.e.  encode only
          the first few values in a subband and then the decoder will
          correctly decode the remainder as 0, but this is as yet untested.

2006-10-30 14:57  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.cpp: Fixed bug so that the decoder
          can now append any data to the end of the arithmetically encoded
          block and still decode correctly. Default padding data is all 1s
          - this should make a null or terminated subband decode with
          zeroes.

          libdirac_common/motion.h, libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/comp_decompress.cpp: Fixed definitions of
          mean/median so that unbiased mean values are used.  Likewise
          changed the prediction for DC values to take account of the fact
          that they may be negative. These changes change the bitstream.

2006-10-30 13:38  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: motion-dec.tex, spec-conventions.tex,
          wlt-dec.tex: Changed specification of division so that it agrees
          with C/C++ standards.  Traced through these changes to
          specification of split mode, block dc value and intra dc band
          prediction.

2006-10-26 16:22  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Moved to using cout instead
          of cerr for reporting.

          libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Made  operation of retired
          picture list comply with specification: only reference pictures
          are signalled to be retired and non-reference pictures are
          retired by the decoder once they are displayed.

          Clarified frame type parameters so as to be sure they always
          agree. This will need further refactoring.

          Reference frames are now cleaned from the buffer _after_ being
          the current frame has been decoded, as per the spec. This allows
          slightly more flexible GOP structures.

2006-10-25 14:01  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.cpp: Fixed bug with wrong quantiser offset

2006-10-19 16:01  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/picture-dec.tex: Changed order of reference buffer

2006-10-19 14:53  tjdwave

          libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.h: Removed the Macroblock
          "Common" mode. This means that each prediction unit within a
          macroblock will have to code a mode. Motion data coding has also
          been changed so that instead of coding all the prediction modes
          first and then all the motion data, prediction modes are included
          in the motion data as per the spec.

          An updated version of the latex spec in which the Common mode is
          omitted is in preparation and will be committed in the next
          couple of weeks.

          figs/sequence.eps, figs/superblock-16pu.eps,
          figs/superblock-1pu.eps, figs/superblock-4pu.eps: Updated and
          refactored data access and coefficient decoding sections.  Spec
          should be up to date and accurate for coefficient decoding, but
          fine-tuning and checking is required. Diagrams also needed.

          Major change is in the way arithmetic decoding operations are
          called. Just specify sets of contexts to be used for follow bits,
          data bits and the sign by passing indices into the state
          variable, which maintains the contexts.

          This simplifies the code in the stream syntax, avoiding local
          copies etc.  Explanation will be required for the context
          indices. The arithmetic decoding section needs updating to
          reflect this change and use of interleaved exp- Golomb coding.

2006-07-07 08:56  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/layout-fullsize.tex: Added temporary environment
          pseudo* for documenting _part_ of a function's pseudocode (no
          function header).  Fixed bug where \bsRET reduces indent by 1 -
          this broke indentation when there were a number of returns in a
          function.

2006-07-06 12:29  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, band_codec.h: Changed coding of
          codeblock quantiser indices to be differential codeblock to
          codeblock, as per Tim's stream syntax, rather than differential
          with respect to the subband quantiser index.

          N.B. this now does not agree with version 0.9.

          align with arithmetic decoding section.

2006-07-03 10:08  tjdwave

        * doc/latex_spec/: layout-fullsize.tex, state-macros.tex: Adding
          shortcuts for decoder state values/variables. This means we can
          change format, or introduce new paramater classes by (mostly)
          modding modding only state-macros.tex.

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.h, mv_codec.cpp, mv_codec.h: Added
          En/DecodeUInt and En/DecodeSInt functions to the arithmetic codec
          class. These functions read and write signed and unsigned
          integers in a unified way. They are used to replace the acres of
          duplicated code in mv_codec.cpp. This change also had the happy
          side effect of removing the need for a whole slew of chooseXXX
          functions used for selecting the arithmetic coding context.

        * libdirac_common/: wavelet_utils.cpp, wavelet_utils.h,
          wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp: [Spec compliance] Accuracy bits are
          required in the wavelet analysis stage. The number of bits
          required depends on the transform depth.  Shift the input data up
          1 bit to the right to increase accuracy in the Analyis stage.
          Round the input data down by 1 bit in the Synthesis stage to
          counter the shift in the analysis stage. All rounding is unbiased
          irrespective of the number of bit it is rounded to. The
          perceptual weights are adjusted for each subband depending on the

          input/output is always true bit depth specified by video-depth
          and not converted to 10 bit data internally.  So no need to shift
          8 bit data by two to convert it to 10 bits.

          picture number is stored in the picture header and not the offset
          from the Access unit picture number. Reference frame offsets and
          retired frame offsets are calculated from current picture number

          restructure of Input/Output classes in Dirac internals. New
          directory, libdirac_byteio contains classes to input from/output
          to a Dirac bistream.

          Dirac external API (both encoder and decoder) has changed. So the
          patches for MPlayer, FFmpeg, and the Dirac Directshow filter will
          no longer work with the CVS source. The external API is likely to
          change over the next few weeks.  Updated versions of the patches
          and Direcshow filter will be available with the next release of
          Dirac.

          NOTE: the bytestream has changed to largely conform to the latest
          Dirac spec.  More work needs to be done to conform fully to the
          Dirac definition document. So expect the CVS source and resulting
          bitstream to change frequently over the next few weeks.

          libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Changing binarisation for
          arithmetic coding, and associated contexts.  The specification
          will be modified accordingly.

          Binarisation for the magnitude values of wavelet coefficients,
          motion vector prediction residues and DC values has been changed
          from unary to interleaved exp-Golomb so that the number of
          symbols to be decoded in order to reconstruct a coefficient is
          reduced. Exp-Golomb binarisation takes a number N>=0 and codes it
          via the binary representation of N+1, 1bbbbbb. If there are K
          bits following the leading 1, the representation is K zeroes
          followed by the binary representation:

          00...01bbbbb Interleaved exp-Golomb is the same, except that the
          K lsbs are interleaved with the zeroes: 0b0b   0b1 so that a
          single decoding loop can be used. The zeroes here act as "follow
          bits" indicating that another bit is to be sent, with 1 as the
          terminator.

          Contexts for coding these symbols are selected for the follow
          bits and other bits ("information bits") separately. Compression
          performance is hardly affected, nor is speed performance in
          software, but hardware performance is greatly facilitated.

2006-04-12 16:06  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Changed while loops for decoding
          and encoding into fixed-size for-loops with break conditions.
          Although ugly, this provides safer code as loops will terminate
          if there's an error.

        * unit_tests/motion_comp_test.cpp: Set number of references in
          MvData constructor to fix compilation errors.

2006-04-10 11:13  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/band_codec.cpp: Changed lookup table-based
          division to a straight division. This is slightly slower, but
          will scale to higher levels of wavelet decomposition.  Also
          eliminates bug with occasional wrap-around for lossless coding on
          some pictures. Making abs_val 64 bits would also work but could
          be equally slow on 32 bit architectures.

        * encoder/encmain.cpp, libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed

          reduces the bit rate by a few bits, but the reason for doing it
          is becuase it makes the codec more logical.  Also modified
          BlockModePrediction so that it doesn't do a prediction for
          reference 2 when we are only using one reference.  Removed some
          unnecessary memory allocation in MvData constructor.  Removed a
          few warning messages and tidied up a bit.

          int. Simplified the code by removing one addition and shift from
          DecodeSymbol.

        * libdirac_common/: arith_codec.cpp, arith_codec.h: Refactored code
          to make implementation easier to understand. The code restructure
          modified the bitstream but older version of arith_codec can
          decode this new version and vice-versa.

2006-02-21 13:32  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Modified arithmetic coding engine
          for speed and spec conformance.  1. Changed context statistics so
          that maximum weight is 256 2. Changed look-up table so that
          inverse of weight is calculated to 16 instead of 31 bits.  3.
          Changed scaled count of zero m_prob0 so that it's 16 bits instead
          of 10

          Changes 1-3 mean that m_prob0 can be worked out using only 16 bit
          multiplies and no bitshift. This is more hardware friendly.

          4. Modified do .. while loop for encoding and decoding so that a
          more efficient test for MSB equality can be used, resulting in a
          speed-up 5. Changed the order of decoding so that bits are
          shifted in first and then the symbol is determined. This reduces
          unnecessary bit inputs and moves to a 'lazy' input mode 6.
          Changed the statistics update function so that m_prob0 is
          calculated for every update rather than every other. This speeds
          up the code and gives better compression performance.

          Dirac specification where a frame is padded so that its
          dimensions are a multiple of 2^(wavelet transform depth) only.
          Also the luma and the chroma components can be padded
          differently. E.g. the luma dimensions may be a perfect multiple
          of 2^(wavelet transform depth) so the luma component is not
          padded but the chroma component may need to be padded depending
          on the chroma format of the input.  To take care of this,
          FrameParams class has been modified to accept both padded chroma
          and padded luma dimensions.

2006-02-14 12:48  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Changed count rescaling so that it
          occurs every time a bit is encoded/decoded.  This is to make
          compliant with spec, and also because doing it every other bit
          was giving no speed advantage.

          of unsigned int values, and are calculated using unbiased
          arithmetic ie with an offset of N/2 for N values to ensure even
          rounding. This changes the mean used for predicting DC values in
          motion vector coding. As a result, the bitstream is also changed.

        * libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp: Changed refresh so that statistics
          are refreshed after m_reset_num macroblocks as intended, rather

          diagnostics and locally decoded data to use in comparison and
          instrumentation tests.

2005-12-01 14:27  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Generation of Diagnostics data and locally
          decoded output is now disabled by default. To enable this use the
          commandline option -local.

        * libdirac_common/upconvert_mmx.cpp: Mods to make
          Upconverter::DoUpconverter function more efficient

2005-12-01 14:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.h: New function
          VHFilter5_3::HorizSynth which is used only when MMX opts are
          enabled. This function is used to interleave horizontal synthesis
          with vertical synthesis to make the wavelet syntheis function
          slightly more efficient.

2005-12-01 14:22  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, band_codec.h: New function
          ClearBlock to set all values in block to 0 more efficiently.
          Applied BandCodec optimisation part of patch 1303281 which make
          DecodeVal function more efficient.

2005-12-01 14:12  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp: Minor mods to optimise
          VHFilter5_3::Split further.

2005-12-01 14:10  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp_mmx.cpp: Minor changes to ensure that
          uninitialised memory reads do not cause crashes when compiled
          using MS VC++. Note that the data read from unitialised memory is
          not being used but still causes problems on some platforms.

2005-12-01 14:06  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Using calculated values of blocks
          per macro block row and blocks per sub-block row instead of
          hardcoded values.

2005-12-01 14:02  asuraparaju

        * util/encoder_gui/: README, diracdata.h, diracgui.cpp, diracgui.h,
          encodebox.cpp, encoder_gui.pro, filesbox.cpp, repthread.cpp,
          tables.h: Included option in GUI to disable the creation of
          diagnostics data file and locally decoded output. dirac_encoder
          need no longer be in the current working directory but in any
          directory in the PATH variable.

2005-11-15 15:35  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Minor cosmetic difference as to
          how CODE_MSB and CODE_2ND_MSB are initialised to make their usage
          more obvious.

2005-11-15 15:33  asuraparaju

        * doc/Makefile.am: Fix problem with install target

2005-11-08 11:45  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/band_codec.cpp: Minor changes in DoWorkCode,
          DoWorkDecode and DecodeCoeffBlock functions in the way 2-D arrays
          are accessed which resulted in a slight decoding speed
          improvement.

2005-11-08 11:43  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/upconvert_mmx.cpp: Minor changes to DoUpConverter
          routine to give slight improvement in uoconversion speed.

2005-11-08 11:41  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arrays.h: In Resize function in OneDArray class,
          dealloc and realloc data only if the new and old array sizes are
          different.

2005-11-08 11:40  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: wavelet_utils.cpp, wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp:
          Optimised WaveletTransform::VHFilter5_3::Split using MMX
          instructions. Minor mods to WaveletTransform::VHFilter5_3::Synth
          function improve speed slightly.

2005-11-08 11:37  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/Makefile.am,
          libdirac_motionest/downconvert.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/downconvert_mmx.cpp,
          win32/VS2003/libdirac_motionest/libdirac_motionest.vcproj:
          Optimised DoDownConverter routine using MMX instructions

2005-11-08 11:34  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp.cpp, mot_comp.h, mot_comp_mmx.cpp:
          Modified motion compensation so that it take Macro-Block
          splitting mode into consideration when compensating a row of
          blocks. Depending on the macroblock split mode, 1,2 or 4 blocks
          of reference data are used to calculate the motion compensated
          data. This sped up the default quarter pixel block motion
          compensation routine by an average of 20-23% for a 2Mbps Dirac
          bitstream.

2005-11-08 11:26  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: frame.cpp, frame.h, frame_buffer.cpp,
          frame_buffer.h: Changes to FrameBuffer handling. Deleting old
          frames and allocating new frames is quite expensive. So instead
          of deleting frames no longer required in the frame buffer, they
          are flagged "not in use". So the next time a new reference frame
          has to be inserted in the Frame buffer, the first frame "not in
          use" is used to store the new frame. An overall improvement of
          6-7 percent in decoding speed for a 2Mbps bitstream resulted.

2005-10-17 12:06  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed bug #1328565. Now
          ensuring that all locally decoded frames are available for
          output.

2005-10-11 14:02  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Incorporated Steve Bearcroft's
          speed-up patch, with some minor typographical changes for
          clarity.

2005-10-11 10:00  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/block_match.cpp: Added patch 1309571 which
          fixes the quality degradation introduced in the motion estimation
          speed-ups.

2005-10-07 11:17  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_utils.cpp, me_utils_mmx.cpp,
          me_utils_mmx.h: Applied MMX optimisations to modified ME
          routines. This is an initial version that improves Motion
          Estimation speed by 30% resulting in a 20% improvement in
          encoding speed overall. This is work in progress.

2005-09-27 14:44  dirac_dev

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.h: Replaced boolean with int.
          C-compilers (eg. ffmpeg) complain about C++ constructs.

2005-09-27 14:08  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/quality_monitor.cpp: Set the motion estimation
          factor to compensate for the default search precision being at
          1/4 pel (as this is the default precision) rather than 1/8th pel.

2005-09-27 14:07  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: motion_estimate.cpp, motion_estimate.h:
          Removed cut detection, which is now in the FrameCompressor class.
          Removed the kludge which scaled the motion vector precisions. All
          motion estimation is now at the selected precision.

2005-09-27 14:01  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_mode_decn.cpp, me_mode_decn.h: Use
          specific matching classes for different pixel accuracies. Reduced
          search ranges for increased speed.

2005-09-27 13:59  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/me_subpel.cpp: Removed calculation of lambda
          map. Simplified class by using the specific subpixel refinement
          matching function.

2005-09-27 13:55  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: pixel_match.cpp, pixel_match.h: Search
          ranges restricted to improve motion estimation speed.

2005-09-27 13:52  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: block_match.cpp, block_match.h: Refactored
          the BlockMatcher class. There are now three functions for finding
          a best match - finding the pixel-accurate best match, refining
          this to sub-pixel accuracy, and also finding a best match from a
          list at sub-pixel level.  These matching functions contain
          shortcuts to speed up matching as follows.

          FindBestMatchPel: - The predictors are each searched first, and
          if their SAD values are small then the search ends.  - bailout
          functions are used for calculating matching costs for the
          remaining candidates

          RefineMatchSubpel: - The predictor from neighbouring (previously
          refined) vectors is tested first. If there's a small SAD, then
          the search ends - Pixel-accurate vectors are refined to half-pel
          vectors by searching the 4 closest half-pel positions (shown as
          X) first:  X XOX  X

          If one of these is better than the pixel-accurate value, then the
          two nearest values in the immediate neighbourhood of the
          pixel-accurate value are also searched, eg the Y values below:

          YXY XOX  X

          This two-stage procedure is followed again in refining to
          quarter- and eighth-pel.  - At each stage of refinement, if we're
          10% worse than the value derived for the predictor, we end the
          search.

          FindBestMatchSubpel: - bailout functions are used

2005-09-27 13:40  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_utils.cpp, me_utils.h: Reorganised
          classes for doing SAD calculations at pixel and sub-pixel
          accuracy. Distinct classes for half-, quarter- and eighth-pixel
          matching have been created. These are present also in 'bailout'
          form so that you can leave the calculation as soon as you know
          that you're not going to beat the best match so far.  These mods
          support speeding up motion estimation, and hence the encoder
          generally.

2005-09-27 12:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed bug# 1291478. Now
          ensuring that dirac_encoder_output returns ENC_STATE_BUFFER when
          data is not loaded into the encoder.

2005-09-27 12:21  asuraparaju

        *
          doc/documentation/code/programmers_guide/decoder_api_functions.htm:
          Bug fix: 1291481. Corrected return value in dirac_parse function
          prototype.

2005-09-27 10:21  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: The quality measurement model
          can only be calculated correctly if reconstructed compressed
          video is available, which isn't the case if we're not doing local
          decoding. In this case, calculating and outputting these values
          is disabled.

2005-09-27 10:16  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: frame_compress.cpp, frame_compress.h: Moved
          the analysis of whether or not we have a cut into FrameCompressor
          class and out of motion estimation classes.

          Also, only do motion compensation on L2 frames if local decoding
          is required.  This is because, by definition, L2 frames can't be
          references and so can be left in a partially reconstructed state
          if local decoding isn't required, which improves encoding speed.

2005-09-27 10:12  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Added support for local
          decoding flag, so that local decoding can be avoided for speed.

2005-09-27 10:09  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Removed commented-out code.

2005-09-27 10:09  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Inverse wavelet transform is
          now only done for L2 frames if local decoding is required. This
          is because L2 frames are (by definition) not used for reference
          and can be left in a partially reconstructed state if local
          decoding isn't needed.

2005-09-27 09:54  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Introduced unbiased rounding into
          calculation of weighting matrices. This allows the subsequent
          rationalisation of the values to be avoided. Also, chroma scale
          factors applied to motion vectors have been replaced by shift
          factors, so that bitshifts can be used instead of divisions for
          greater efficiency.

2005-09-27 09:50  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: common.cpp, common.h: Added support for an
          encode params flag indicating whether we're doing local decoding.
          Local decoding can then be omitted for greater efficiency.

2005-09-27 09:44  tjdwave

        * decoder/decmain.cpp: Made timing info only output in verbose
          mode.

2005-09-27 09:43  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Added timing data for encoding.

2005-09-27 09:40  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Simplified ArithCodec class so
          that probality intervals aren't used.

2005-09-07 15:29  tjdwave

        * util/encoder_gui/: COPYING, README, diracdata.h, diracgui.cpp,

          in CVS.

2005-09-07 10:39  tjdwave

        * doc/DiracSpec0.9.pdf: Added decoder semantics and revised
          bitstream structure.

2005-08-31 14:42  tjdwave

          libdirac_encoder/quality_monitor.cpp: Added support for lossless
          I-frame and long-GOP coding, with CLI option.

2005-08-23 11:52  asuraparaju

        * ChangeLog: [no log message]

2005-08-23 11:46  asuraparaju

        * NEWS: Added 0.5.3 release notes

2005-08-23 11:14  asuraparaju

        * doc/documentation.html: Having trouble creating a pdf document in
          which MathML is rendered correctly.  Hence a pdf version of the
          Algorithm document cannot be generated at the moment.  Removed
          broken link to Algorithm pdf until this problem can be fixed.

2005-08-22 13:51  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Update the help string for enable-mmx configure
          argument to make it clear that MMX opts are enabled by default.
          The user will have to explcitly specify --enable-mmmx=no or
          --disable-mmx to disable MMX opts.

2005-08-19 13:41  asuraparaju

        * extras/patches/: README_transcode-1.0.0_dirac-0.5.x_patch,
          transcode-1.0.0-dirac-0.5.x.patch: Dirac patch for
          transcode-1.0.0. This patch is not a standalone patch and will be
          effective only if the ffmpeg library it uses is built with the
          dirac patch applied.

2005-08-19 13:38  asuraparaju

        * extras/patches/README_MPlayer-1.0pre7_dirac-0.5.x_patch: Updated

          README_FFMpeg-20050806-dirac-0.5.x_patch: Dirac patch for ffmpeg
          cvs snapshot dated 06-Aug-2005. Note that this has been tested
          with CVS versions as late at 16-Aug-2006 but the CVS snapshots
          past 06-Aug-2005 are not available for download on the FFmpeg
          server.

2005-08-19 13:34  asuraparaju

        * extras/patches/README_transcode-0.6.14_dirac-0.5.x_patch: Updated
          for dirac v0.5.3

2005-08-19 13:33  asuraparaju

        * extras/patches/: README_ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1-dirac-0.5.x_patch,
          ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1-dirac-0.5.x.patch: Updated patch for
          dirac-0.5.3. Changed license to LGPL. Fixed bug in setting the
          quality factor where the quality factor lookup table was uint8_t
          instead of float which was causing the qf to be truncated to
          uint8_t.  dirac_decode_frame now correctly returns the number of
          bytes it consumed. This is a fix for bug 1246767.

2005-08-18 09:30  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Clarified CLI error message.

2005-08-18 09:27  tjdwave

        * doc/faq.htm: Removing unwanted files in doc restructure

2005-08-15 08:34  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Added comment explaining look-up
          table operation.

2005-08-12 11:58  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Include an extra flag to suppress warnings when
          compiling in debug mode using icc.

2005-08-12 11:57  asuraparaju

        * README, README.developers: MMX optimisations are enabled by
          default. Provided instructions as to how to disable it.

2005-08-12 10:26  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/motion.cpp: Reinstated transition detection code.
          This means that mode decision is kinder when a transition in the
          motion vector field is detected, giving better quality in motion
          transition areas.

2005-08-11 11:44  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Added Pete Bleackley's code to use
          a look-up table for division.

2005-08-11 08:21  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.cpp: Added a warning when impossible block
          parameters are being used, and the encoder changes them.

2005-08-10 17:50  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: wavelet_utils.cpp, wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp:
          Optimised 5_3 wavelet synthesis function, VHFilter5_3::Synth,
          using MMX instructions resulting in  6 percent speed improvement
          in decoding SD.

2005-08-10 17:48  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix g++ warning about unused
          variable recode.

2005-08-10 17:47  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Print error message and exit if input and
          output file names are the same.  Changed back cif preset option
          to uppercase. Sequence and encoder params currently being used
          are displayed on standard out before actual coding starts.

2005-08-10 17:45  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: MMX optimisations are enabled by default. Use
          --disable-mmx to explicitly disable them.

2005-08-10 09:13  tjdwave

        * README: Added modified instructions for -qf and advice about
          -width and -height.

2005-08-10 09:06  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/block_match.cpp: Changed motion vector bitrate
          measure so that transitions from foreground to background and
          vice-versa are not penalised.

2005-08-10 09:04  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Removed recoding: superfluous
          now there is no CQ coding.

2005-08-10 09:02  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: quality_monitor.cpp, quality_monitor.h:
          Removed constant quality encoding control mechanism, because it
          worked too poorly for varied sequences. Instead, QualityMonitor
          just monitors quality and encoder control reverts to constant
          Lagrangian parameters.

          The magic numbers chosen may not work for all sequences or all
          video standards but will do for the moment.

2005-08-10 08:57  tjdwave

        * libdirac_decoder/comp_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/frame_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Changed default wavelet
          filters to fast filters APPROX97 and FIVETHREE.  Wavelet filter
          type is now signalled in the frame header so that changing these
          filters just changes the encoder. (This is now consistent with
          the spec).

2005-08-10 08:50  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: motion.cpp, motion.h: Fixed bug with way median
          is calculated. Removed large inline functions from .h and placed
          in .cpp for clarity.

2005-08-10 08:48  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Minor tidy of the way that
          weighting matrices are computed.

2005-08-10 08:44  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: common.cpp, common.h: Removed recode parameter.
          Added a CodecParams parameter for the wavelet filter being used,
          to support signalling this in the bitstream, rather than
          selecting by frame type. (This is in the spec).

2005-08-10 08:42  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: bit_manager.cpp, bit_manager.h: Added support
          for finding out the current size of bit buffers. This will
          support future CBR implementations and calculations of bit rate
          on the fly.

2005-08-10 08:40  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: dirac_encoder.cpp, dirac_encoder.h: Removed
          recode option. Set block parameters for HD720 the same as for SD
          to get around bug 1245129.  Need to fix padding and edge issues
          to fully resolve this bug.

2005-08-10 08:27  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Added feature to print out help if there's
          an unrecognised/unparsed option.  Removed recode feature.

2005-08-01 17:14  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_decoder/dirac_parser.cpp: Speed up set_component
          function using MMX optimisation.

2005-08-01 17:14  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/arrays.h: In TwoDArray<T>::Resize, free and
          reallocate data only if the new dimensions differ from the old
          one.

2005-08-01 17:12  asuraparaju

        * win32/VS2003/:
          DiracDecoder/libdirac_decoder/libdirac_decoder.vcproj,
          libdirac_common/libdirac_common.vcproj: Define HAVE_MMX macro for
          mmx enabled targets.

2005-08-01 17:11  asuraparaju

        * util/instrumentation/process_sequence.cpp: Fix uninitialised
          memory read bug reported by Valgrind on reaching end of sequence.

2005-08-01 17:10  asuraparaju

        * unit_tests/: motion_comp_test.cpp, motion_comp_test.h: Test all
          MV precision values - from pixel to an eighth of a pixel.

2005-08-01 17:10  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils_mmx.cpp: Reimplement
          VHFilterApprox9_7::Synth and VHFilter13_5::Synth using MMX
          optimisation.

2005-08-01 17:09  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/upconvert_mmx.cpp: Reimplemented
          UpConverter::DoUpConverter function using MMX optimisation.

2005-08-01 17:07  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp_mmx.cpp, mot_comp_mmx.h:
          Implementation of QuarterPixel::CompensateBlock function using
          MMX optimisation.

2005-08-01 17:06  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.cpp: MMX version of Wavelet
          sythesis functions are used if MMX is enabled.

2005-08-01 17:05  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/upconvert.cpp: MMX version of DoUpConverter is
          used if MMX is enabled.

2005-08-01 17:04  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp.cpp, mot_comp.h: Modified the block
          weights to be of type short to make efficient use of MMX
          instructions. Modified CompensateComponente to make more
          efficient use of data in cache. MMX versions of CompensateBlock
          are used if MMX is enabled.

2005-08-01 17:04  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/Makefile.am: Include new mmx optimisation source
          files and headers.

2005-07-26 10:39  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Reduced chroma weighting
          factors in order to increase chroma fidelity - chroma bit rates
          should increase from about 5% of total for 420 to 7.5% of total.
          Changed default block separation for HD720 preset to remove block
          edge overlaps at the top of the screen. This may be returned to
          the old settings when we know why they caused the problem.

2005-07-25 18:01  mservais

        * libdirac_common/motion.cpp, libdirac_common/motion.h,
          libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp, libdirac_common/mv_codec.h,
          libdirac_decoder/frame_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/global_motion.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/global_motion.h,
          libdirac_motionest/me_motion_type_decn.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/me_motion_type_decn.h,
          libdirac_motionest/motion_estimate.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/pixel_match.cpp: Minor bug fixes and added
          some extra comments

2005-07-22 18:09  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: updated revision to 0.5.3

2005-07-22 18:09  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/bit_manager.h: Updated bitstream version to 0.5
          since the bitstream is no longer compatible with dirac-0.5.2

2005-07-22 12:59  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Include macro AC_SYS_LARGEFILE to overcome the 2GB
          i/o file limit.  Fix for bug #1212581.

2005-07-21 09:11  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Made presets non-case-sensitive.

2005-07-20 10:29  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Fixed bug where block
          parameters were being set incorrectly.

2005-07-20 09:43  tjdwave

        * README: Added text about recode CLI option.

2005-07-19 16:39  tjdwave

        * encoder/encmain.cpp, libdirac_common/common.cpp,
          libdirac_common/common.h, libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.h,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Added -recode parameter. If
          -recode [n] is present, then the encoder will recode up to n
          times (ie will encoder up to n+1 times).

2005-07-19 15:17  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp: Fixed bug 1240709. Common
          mode is now used to reduce encoding of prediction modes. Common
          mode was also being set incorrectly in the motion estimation
          process, which caused divergence between the encoder and decoder
          values.  Since common mode wasn't used, this bug was masked
          before. Both now fixed.

2005-07-08 10:26  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: upconvert.cpp, upconvert.h: Incorporated patch
          1211899. This tidies up the code and makes it confirm to dirac
          coding conventions, and also uses a smaller filter. This commit
          differs from the patch in that the filter is not reduced to 6
          taps but is reducted to 10 taps instead.  In the future, variable
          filter coefficients may be supported via templated polymorphism.

2005-06-22 17:52  mservais

        * libdirac_common/motion.cpp, libdirac_common/motion.h,
          libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp, libdirac_common/mv_codec.h,
          libdirac_motionest/filter_weighted_local.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/global_motion.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/global_motion.h,

          libdirac_motionest/motion_estimate.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/pixel_match.cpp: When using global motion (but
          not exclusively global motion), the global motion decisions can
          now be flagged either per Prediction Unit or per Macro-Block.

          Also, the use of a Common Mode for each Macro-Block is now
          possible. (This had not been fully implemented before.)

2005-06-10 15:15  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/quality_monitor.cpp,
          libdirac_motionest/block_match.cpp: Fixed bug with computing MV
          costs. Incorporated patch 1216297 for quality measurement.

2005-06-10 11:52  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp: Changed default block height
          and width for motion compensation to 24 by 24 pixels from 20 by
          20. Separation remains 16 by 16. The result is reduced blockiness
          in areas of poor motion prediction. Downside is slower encoder,
          but the block parameters are merely scaled-up versions of the SD
          parameters.

2005-05-26 19:48  asuraparaju

        * extras/patches/ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1-dirac-0.5.x.patch: Fixed bug
          1209053. Frame size parameters are now fetched from the AV
          context before setting frame size. Also fixed a bug where quality
          factor was not being set correctly.

2005-05-26 16:20  stuart_hc

        * tests/samples.at: Fix bug 1209017: use -width/-height instead of
          -x/-y

2005-05-26 16:01  stuart_hc

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Fix bug 1209017: use -width/-height instead
          of -x/-y Also fix SEGV when incorrect -cformat parameter is
          passed.

2005-05-26 15:59  stuart_hc

        * README: Fix bug 1209017: use -width/-height instead of -x/-y

2005-05-25 14:30  asuraparaju

        * ChangeLog: [no log message]

2005-05-25 13:51  asuraparaju

        * README.release: Add ffmpeg patch to checklist

2005-05-25 13:43  asuraparaju

        * NEWS: Included dirac-0.5.2 release notes

2005-05-25 13:40  asuraparaju

        * AUTHORS: Updated contibutor list

2005-05-25 13:06  asuraparaju

          ffmpeg-0.4.9-pre1-dirac-0.5.x.patch,
          transcode-0.6.14-dirac-0.5.x.patch: Patches to MPlayer, ffmped
          and transcode to add Dirac support to these tools.

2005-05-24 08:28  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fixed bug with count increment
          so that fast adaption takes place on first recoding rather than
          second.

2005-05-20 15:30  asuraparaju

        * README: Modified this file to remove all references to image
          header files which are no longer required.

2005-05-20 15:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix minor glitches in verbose
          output

2005-05-20 15:02  asuraparaju

        * win32/VS2003/dirac.sln: Remove MakeHeader from list of targets as
          contents of header files have been replaced with command line
          arguments.

2005-05-20 15:01  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp, libdirac_encoder/dirac_encoder.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/seq_compress.cpp: Fix bugs in bit rate reporting

2005-05-20 14:05  asuraparaju

        * Makefile.am, configure.ac: make_header utility is no longer
          required. So removing picheader directory from list of targets.

2005-05-20 13:44  asuraparaju

        * tests/: colourbars.at, create_dirac_testfile.pl, samples.at:
          Remove all references to make_header. Sequence header information
          is now passed to encoder on the command line.

2005-05-20 13:43  asuraparaju

        * util/instrumentation/instrmain.cpp: The encoder now writes
          sequence header information to the instrumentation output file.
          So read sequence info from instrumentation file.

2005-05-20 13:42  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Fix g++ errors. Write the sequence header
          information to the instrumentation file.

2005-05-20 13:41  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: pic_io.cpp, pic_io.h: Delete all code relating
          to header file creation/reading. All sequence parameters are now
          supplied to encoder via the command line.

2005-05-19 12:23  dirac_dev

        * decoder/decmain.cpp: Removed any references to header files.

2005-05-19 12:15  dirac_dev

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Removed requirement of a header file. All
          parameters are handled through command-line options. Most options
          will still be set by the pre-set option, although they can be
          overriden.

2005-05-19 12:03  asuraparaju

        * unit_tests/motion_comp_test.cpp: Update motion compensation tests
          to use the helper function in MotionCompensator to instantiate
          the MotionCompensator sub-class for the mv precision value
          selected.

2005-05-19 11:56  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_decoder/: frame_decompress.cpp, frame_decompress.h: Now
          reads the MV precision in the frame header.

2005-05-19 11:35  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/frame_compress.cpp: Writing the motion vector
          precision value as part of frame header. Default mv precision is
          set to 2 i.e. quarter pixel.

2005-05-19 11:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils_mmx.cpp: Fixed C/C++ aliasing
          violations that caused a performance slow down when compiled with
          gcc 4.0.0

2005-05-19 11:24  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils.h: Fixed gcc 4.0.0 warnings

2005-05-19 11:23  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/bit_manager.h: Updated bitstream version to 0.4

2005-05-19 11:21  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: common.cpp, common.h: Added a field to
          CodecParams class for motion vector precision. A value of 'n'
          implies a precision of (2**-n)i pixel. i.e. a value of 2 implies
          an mv precision of 1/4 i.e. quarter pixel.

2005-05-19 11:16  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: mot_comp.cpp, mot_comp.h: Added support for
          multiple levels of motion vector precision - pixel, half pixel,
          quarter pixel and multiple pixel. The main MotionCompensator
          class is an abstract class. Each of its sub-classes define the
          CompensateBlock function to a particular level of motion
          precision.

2005-05-19 11:12  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/: me_mode_decn.cpp, me_subpel.cpp,
          motion_estimate.cpp: Motion estimation modified to support
          variable motion vector precision. The implementation is
          preliminary, and should be modified later: vectors are scaled by
          a factor 8 to give a maximum of eighth-pel accuracy. Generic
          block matching functions are used at this accuracy even though
          true accuracy will be less - the subpixel search is merely
          truncated.

          In the future, half-pixel and quarter-pixel block matching
          functions should be written, just as for motion compensation as
          these will be faster.

          win32/VS2003/ConversionUtils/BMPtoRGB/Debug/vc70.pdb: Prediction
          units can now use either global or block motion. (Decision based
          on similarity of global and block motion vectors.)

2005-05-11 10:13  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.cpp: Fixed -pedantic errors on
          unused variables. Replaced dynamic built-in array (which violates
          ISO C++) with array class.

2005-05-05 15:10  tjdwave

        * unit_tests/wavelet_utils_test.cpp: Added support for testing all
          different wavelet transforms for invertibility.

2005-05-04 14:35  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.h, libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.cpp,
          libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.h, libdirac_common/band_codec.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/comp_decompress.cpp,
          libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Modifications to support
          different wavelet filter types.

          wavelet_utils.{cpp,h} Added three new filter types with lifting
          implementations, all much faster than Daubechies (9,7).
          Refactored the code to support filter selection in constructor of
          WaveletTransform class. Added method to correctly output DC band
          expected values. Separated off coefficient interleaving and
          deinterleaving. Setting of subband weights is now a
          WaveletTransform function, as noise weighting factors depend on
          the filter choice.

          band_codec.cpp Removed literal constant and used 0 instead for
          top-left DC value prediction.

          comp_compress.cpp, comp_decompress.cpp Changed default filters
          from Daubechies (9,7) to faster filters which perform almost as
          well. This is a temporary mod. It is intended to be able to
          select fast filters via the CLI and for wavelet filter choices to
          be signalled in frame headers. This will be done in later
          refactoring to converge with the bitstream syntax in terms of
          frame types and header information.

        * libdirac_common/frame.cpp: Included an MMX implementation of
          Frame::ClipComponent to achieve a decoding speedup in conjuction
          with mot_comp.cpp changes. Also using pointer arithmetic insted
          of index operator when accessing TwoDArray objects.

2005-04-13 16:25  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils_mmx.cpp: Using pointer arithmetic
          instead of the index operator when using TwoDArray objects to get
          an overall slight improvement in encoding speed.

2005-04-13 16:16  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/mot_comp.cpp: Partially applied patch 1151976.
          Using pointer arithmetic instead of index operator to access

2005-04-12 11:56  timborer

        * doc/DiracSpecV0.1.doc: Modifed default Motion Vector precision
          (now 1/4 pel), added note that max MV precision should be
          included in Level. Corrected typos.

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, band_codec.h, mv_codec.cpp,
          mv_codec.h: Changes to reflect mods to arith_codec.h: in
          particular, Update is removed as this is no longer a virtual
          function. Instead the base class function is called directly in
          the encoding/decoding engines.

2005-04-06 15:07  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Speed-up to arithmetic coding and

2005-02-15 11:38  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Update release id to 0.5.1. Added flag to enable
          MMX optimisation and test for checking if MMX optimising is
          available. Default opt level changed to -O3 for g++ and icc.
          Added extra optimisation flags when compiling with g++.  Fixed
          cppunit availability check to report linker errors so that shared
          library mismatches are trapped.

2005-02-15 11:33  asuraparaju

        * encoder/encmain.cpp: Modified error messages to output more
          information.

2005-02-15 11:31  asuraparaju

        * tests/: Makefile.am, create_dirac_testfile.pl, samples.at,
          testsuite.at: A new script to generate dirac test data of
          different chroma formats from source RGB format input data. A new
          testcase, samples.at, which looks for Dirac test data in the
          directory specified by the env variable DIRAC_INPUT_DATA_DIR.
          The script and testcase are useful to run end-to-end tests using

          functions specific to Dirac project

2005-02-08 14:02  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/arith_codec.h: Replaced delete with delete[] in
          destructor. Added clean-up in data reading so that the class can
          be re-used without causing a memory leak.

2005-02-07 12:12  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/comp_decompress.cpp: Fixed bug where blocks of
          coefficients with zero dimensions were being generated. There's
          now a minimum size of 4x4 coefficients for a code block.

2005-02-02 15:29  asuraparaju

2005-02-02 15:24  dirac_dev

        *
          win32/VS2003/DiracEncoder/libdirac_encoder/libdirac_encoder.vcproj:
          Added quant_chooser.cpp/h

2005-02-02 14:50  tjdwave

        * libdirac_decoder/: comp_decompress.cpp, comp_decompress.h: Added
          support for multiple code blocks/quantisers. Added separate
          function for reading header.

2005-02-02 14:49  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/Makefile.am: Modded to add quant_chooser.{cpp,h}

2005-02-02 14:47  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: comp_compress.cpp, comp_compress.h,
          quality_monitor.cpp, quality_monitor.h: Removed quantiser
          selection from comp_compress to another class.

2005-02-02 14:46  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: quant_chooser.cpp, quant_chooser.h: Modified
          author details.

2005-02-02 14:44  tjdwave

        * libdirac_encoder/: quant_chooser.cpp, quant_chooser.h: Added
          classes to handle selecting quantisers. These allow a single
          quantiser per subband to be chosen, or alternatively one for each
          code block.

2005-02-02 14:42  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/: band_codec.cpp, common.cpp, mv_codec.cpp,
          wavelet_utils.cpp, arith_codec.h, band_codec.h, common.h,
          mv_codec.h, wavelet_utils.h: Modified wavelet coeff coding to
          code blocks of coefficients. with skip flags if all coefficients
          are zero. Wavelet coefficient coding has reduced use of class
          member variables for clarity. The arithmetic coding and decoding
          engines have been modified to improve speed and code
          organisation. The decoder now reads in all the data before
          beginning decoding. Coding of motion vector data has been tidied,
          and modified to accommodate changes in the arithmetic coding
          engine. Block prediction modes are now coded slightly
          differently, which improves compression performance.

2005-01-24 16:58  tjdwave

        * libdirac_common/common.h, libdirac_common/mv_codec.cpp,
          libdirac_common/mv_codec.h, libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp:
          Changed prediction of block modes to be bitwise - bit 0 indicates
          the presence of a Ref1 MV, and bit 1 indicated the presence of a
          Ref2 MV. This is also reflected in selecting modes in motion
          estimation.

2005-01-24 16:06  tjdwave

        * libdirac_motionest/me_mode_decn.cpp: Re-instituted bi-directional
          prediction, inadvertently commented out.

        * libdirac_motionest/: block_match.cpp, block_match.h,
          me_subpel.cpp: Made local motion vector variance a member
          function of the block matcher, and made the cut-off limits depend
          on the picture size. This improves performance at HD by 4% or so.

          related files to list of targets

2004-11-26 13:28  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Modified check for cppunit test framework to ensure
          that it can run without errors. This was required because unit
          tests fail when built with icc. This is a temporary measure until
          it is determined why unit tests fail when built with icc on
          linux.

2004-11-22 13:58  asuraparaju

        * bootstrap: Added libtool support

2004-11-22 13:57  asuraparaju

        * dirac.pc.in: After the library restructuring, only two libraries
          are required - the encoder and decoder libraries.

2004-11-22 13:57  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Added libtool support to build libraries.

2004-11-22 13:56  asuraparaju

        * INSTALL: Minor changes related to the main configure file and the
          flags to use

2004-11-22 13:56  asuraparaju

        * README: Added descrition of additional flags available at
          configure time

2004-11-22 13:54  asuraparaju

          util/instrumentation/Makefile.am,
          util/instrumentation/libdirac_instrument/Makefile.am: Instead of
          4 libraries only two libraries are now built and installed -
          libdirac_encoder and libdirac_decoder. Only the public "C" API
          headers and libraries are copied to the installation directories
          when 'make install' is used.  Now using libtool to build
          libraries. On GNU/Linux and UNIX-like platforms, shared and
          static versions of the exported libraries are built.      On MS
          Windows platforms, only shared libraries or static libraries can
          be built but not both.

2004-11-22 13:51  asuraparaju

        * tests/: Makefile.am, colourbars.at, unittests.at: Added valgrind
          support while running tests. The 'make valgrind-check' command
          now runs valgrind memory checks on all the tests. Note that the
          tests take a very long time to run in this mode

2004-11-22 13:50  asuraparaju

        * util/: Makefile.am, conversion/Makefile.am: Include Id tag to
          track revisions.

          "invalid read" and "memory leak" errors reported by valgrind.
          Added namespace support. All instrumentation library
          functionality is in the namespace dirac_instr.

2004-11-22 13:39  asuraparaju

        * util/instrumentation/: process_sequence.cpp, process_sequence.h:
          Replace all refrences to PicInput and PicOutput classes with
          FileStreamInput and FileStreamOutput classes. m_zl (number of
          frames in sequence) is no longer part of the Sequence header.
          Changed function ProcessSequence::DoSequence to work around this.

2004-11-22 13:39  asuraparaju

        * util/instrumentation/instrmain.cpp: Replaces all references to
          PicInput and PicOutput classes with FileStreamInput and
          FileStreamOutput classes.

2004-11-22 13:37  asuraparaju

        * picheader/: Makefile.am, headmain.cpp: Number of frames in a
          sequence is no longer required in encode/decode operations.

2004-11-22 13:36  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/: seq_compress.cpp, seq_compress.h: Restructured
          SequenceCompressor class to separate frame loading and frame
          compression functionality into two different functions. This was
          necessary to implement the "C" interface to the encoder. Added
          new access functions, GetFrameEncoded and GetMEData(), to return
          the latest frame encoded and the motion estimation data
          associated with it. Added function EndSequence that writes end of
          sequence information the the output bitstream.  Added namespace
          support. All core Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:35  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/: frame_compress.cpp, frame_compress.h: Motion
          Estimation data is no longer written to a file. Instead, added
          new functions, IsMEDataAvail and GetMEdata,  to enable class user
          to access the Motion Estimation data.  Added namespace support.
          All core Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:34  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Allowed a full range of
          quantisers, so that lossless coding is possible.  Replaced tabs
          with spaces.  Fixed MSVC++ compiler warnings.  Added namespace
          support.

2004-11-22 13:33  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_decoder/seq_decompress.cpp: Removed all depedency on the
          m_zl (number of frames in sequence) parameter in the sequence
          parameters which no longer exists.

2004-11-22 13:32  asuraparaju

        * decoder/decmain.cpp, libdirac_decoder/dirac_parser.cpp,
          libdirac_decoder/dirac_parser.h: Moved structures common to the
          encoder and decoder "C" interfaces into
          librac_common/dirac_types.h

2004-11-22 13:30  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/bit_manager.h: Updated the bit stream version
          since the the bitstream in release 0.5.0 differs from the
          bitstream in version 0.4.x.  Added namespace support. All core
          Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:29  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: frame_buffer.cpp, frame_buffer.h: FrameBuffer
          functions now support all io classes derived from the abstract
          pic io classes StreamPicInput and StreamPicOutput Added namespace
          support. All core Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:29  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/: pic_io.cpp, pic_io.h: Restructured the PicIO
          classes so that in addition to file io streams, memory based io
          streams are also supported. Replaced PicInput and PicOutput
          classes with FileStreamInput and FileStreamOutput classes.

2004-11-22 13:28  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/dirac_assertions.cpp: Modified dirac_assert
          function always dump core irrespetive of whether the code was
          built in debug mode or release mode.  Added namespace support.
          All core Dirac functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:26  asuraparaju

        * unit_tests/: core_suite.h, cppunit_testsuite.cpp, utmain.cpp:

          100% overlap in setting block sizes.  Removed m_zl (number of
          frames) parameter from SeqParams class. The user need no longer
          to specify the number of frames in the input sequence.  Added new
          functions ChromaWidth and ChromaHeight to SeqParams class which
          return the width and height of the chroma component.  Changed
          m_output_path in EncParams to var type std::string to prevent
          buffer overflow errors.  Added namespace support. All core Dirac
          functionality is now in namespace dirac.

2004-11-22 13:09  asuraparaju

          wavelet transform (again). Code now does re-ordering separately
          so that all the wavelet lifting stages can be done with in-place
          calculation.  All loops traverse contiguous data in memory to
          facilitate future vectorisation.

2004-11-04 12:52  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_encoder/comp_compress.cpp: Fixed bug 1055692 which was
          caused by integer overflow when calculating the quality based on
          4th powers of error. The integer overflow resulted in attempting
          to determine the square root of a negative number which caused
          the encoder to go into a permanent loop when using gcc 3.4.2.
          Modified the Mean Square Error calculation to use double instead
          of int type to fix this bug.

2004-11-04 12:52  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_motionest/me_utils.cpp: Applied patch 1055714. Now the

        * libdirac_decoder/: decoder_types.h, dirac_cppparser.cpp,
          dirac_cppparser.h, dirac_parser.cpp, dirac_parser.h: These new
          files define the  "C" interface to the decoder. The bitstream has
          been modified to be able to parse it for decoding.

          BitStream Changes:

          The new dirac bit stream is as follows <sequence-start-code>
          <sequence header> <frame-start-code> <frame 1 data> .  .  .
          <frame-start-code> <frame n data> <sequence-end-code>

          Sequence start code: Each sequence begins with a 5 bytes start
          code 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0xB3

          Frame start code: Each frame begins with a 5 bytes frame start
          code  0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0xB4

          Sequence End code: Each sequence ends with a 5 bytes sequence end
          code 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04 0xB7

          Not a start code flag: If the arithmetic codec ouputs the start
          code prefix 0x01 0x02 0x03 0x04, 0xFF is inserted into the
          bitstream to flag that this is the output of the Arithmetic codec
          and not a start code.

2004-08-11 14:27  asuraparaju

        * configure.ac: Added a new option --enable-profile to include the
          profiling option -pg to them compile line. Setting up CXXFLAGS
          correctly for Intel compiler when the --enable-debug option is
          used.

          libdirac_common, libdirac_encoder, libdirac_motionest:     Added
          lifting classes for wavelet transform. Refactored motion
          estimation to make logic clearer, and added separate
          pixel-accurate matching classes.  Put in a longer temporal filter
              in QualityMonitor class to reduce oscillation and changed
          motion     estimation Lagrangian parameter to improve
          performance.  TO DO:     tune ME parameter for each picture
          size/block size combination.

          libdirac_common:     Corrected bug with lifting functions not
          returning a value.      Modified MvData class to make member
          variables private.

          libdirac_encoder:     Modified ME lambda value to improve
          performance.

          libdirac_decode, libdirac_encoder, libdirac_motionest,
          libdirac_common:     Modified MvData class to make member
          variables private. Created     MEData class as a subclass of
          MvData for use in motion estimation.

          libdirac_commonm libdirac_encoder:     Refactored output classes
          to create classes for unit, frame and     sequence output, where
          a unit is a subband or MV data, and consists of     a header and
          subsequent data. Output can only be effected at the     sequence
          level and occurs only after a whole frame of data has been
          accumulated.  This will allow for frames to be re-coded before
          being     output if their quality is not satisfactory.

          README: Removed discussion of Iqf, L1qf and L2qf. Added text
             explaining constant- quality encoding using -qf.

          Makefile.am: Changed order of make, so that utilities can use the
                  common (and other) libraries.

          libdirac_common:     Changed EncoderParams to include a quality
            parameter for constant-quality encoding. Changed perceptual
          weighting to use an extension of CCIR 959 weights, with extra
          weight for DC band, and lower weights for chroma bands.

              Modified enumerated type CompSort to avoid name clashes by
          using
              longer names. Refactored OLBParams class to have private
          member variables
              and access functions.

          libdirac_encoder:     Added QualityMonitor class to do
          constant-quality     encoding. Class looks at difference between
          locally decoded and     original frames and adjusts Lagrangian
          parameters appropriately.      Simplified interface for encoding
          results, where a single quality      parameter is specified.

          libdirac_decoder     FrameDecompressor::Decompress now returns
          true upon success and false     upon failure.

          encoder/encmain.cpp:     Simplified interface for encoding
          results, where a single quality     parameter is specified.

          *** empty log message ***
            $Revision$

          -  Included the following CVS tags in all source and header files
             $Id$    $Name$

          -  Included a new configuration option, --enable-debug, in
          configure.ac. This    option turns on the flags '-Wall -pedantic
          -Werror' to trap warnings.

          -  Modified parameter classes in common.{h,cpp} to make member
          variables    private and accessible through class methods. Traced
          through codec.

          -  Deleted context.h. The classes that were originally in this
          file have been    integrated as nested classes into ArithCodec
          class in arith_codec.h

          -  Fixed bug on QCIF coding. The number of downconversions during
             hierarchical motion estimation is now limited based on the
          size of the    picture

          -  Changed decoder and encoder params to be references throughout
          frame and    component (de)compression rather than being copied.

          -  Code cleansed to follow coding standards specified in
          README.developers.     - Changed names of member variables to use
          m_ convention     - Used spaces to improve readability of code
           - Accessing class member variables through accessor/mutator
          function rather       than directly     - Non-trivial member
          functions moved from headers to .cpp files

             Changes mainly in the following directories:
             libdirac_common
             libdirac_decoder
             libdirac_encoder

          -  Fixed g++ compiler warnings

2004-06-22 11:10  asuraparaju

        * libdirac_common/wavelet_utils.h: Modified doxygen comments to
          match the declaration of member function SetBandWeights in class
          WaveletTransform.

2004-06-22 11:08  asuraparaju

          classes to avoid duplication. Made consequential minor mods to
          seq_{de}compress and frame_{de}compress code.  Revised motion
          compensation to use built-in arrays for weighting matrices and to
          enforce their const-ness.  Removed unnecessary memory
          (de)allocations from Frame class copy constructor and assignment
          operator.

          tools for converting between uncompressed picture formats. All
          conversions use uncompressed RGB as an intermediate format.
          There is a known bug with the colour matrixing which applies a
          gain when going from YUV to RGB and back again. This will be
          fixed in a subsequent release.
