Intra search was using faulty border data and selected modes were a bit random. Around -0.5% (LP) and -2% (AI) change in BD-rate was seen in limited testing conditions.
- Add our own Github fork of greatest as a submodule, in case we want to
improve it and push changes upstream easily in the future.
- Update existing unit tests to use greatest.
- Update Visual Studio project to remove traces of seatest and include greatest.
Name mangling is causing problems on different platforms (issues #2 and #3) and some of it was solved modifying the Makefile. Separate 32bit and 64bit assembly functions were also causing problems and since we were going to move to x264asm abstraction layer anyway, we decided to do it now before spending time on the old implementation.
Conflicts:
src/encoder.c
- Chroma RDOQ changes conflicted because I had moved the chroma
quantization/dequantization to it's own function.
- Merged to master because I want my code to show up in github. =)
All the old stuff still works, even though NxN doesn't work, so there
is no reason not to merge anyway.
- Re-enable intra search based on reconstructed image.
- This didn't have as much of an effect as I thought it would.
- Re-enable SAO and deblocking.
- Disable NxN searching. (4x4 luma coding is still broken)
Still doesn't work. I have no idea what the problem is. Probably somehow related to the coefficient coding, since the bitstream seems to work, the prediction is correct and the error is not very severe.
- Change scan order selection to be more verbose and based on the correct mode for 4x4. Didn't affect the problem with 4x4 luma in any way although it should have.
- Re-enable residual coding as everything seems to work now besides 4x4 luma.
New implementation uses precalculated tables to look up number of reference
pixels available in coded CUs. Otherwise it works just like the previous
version.
- NxN mostly works. Prediction appears to be almost correct but there is a
slight error in the exact values, probably related to filtering.
- Set part-size for Inter.
- Change to Intra Only mode for testing.
- Many small changes here and there. Should have been separate commits probably, but too late.
- Disable SAO and deblocking to be able to see problems with reconstruction better.
- Adjust predictor list to take modes from PUs in addition to 2Nx2N CUs.
- Change intra_get_dir_luma_predictor to take PU index instead of CU index.
- Comment prediction encoding now that I've had to look it up.
