- Replaces lcu_dqp_enabled with max_qp_delta_depth in encoder_control_t.
- Fixes set_cu_qps so that it can handle quantization groups of
arbitrary size.
- Fixes computation of QP predictors so that it works for quantization
groups of arbitrary size.
Adds an additional grid search step that starts from the zero motion
vector after the normal grid search. The search range for this step is
half of the normal range.
- Changes TZ grid search and star refinement to keep the origin constant
instead of moving to the best position after each iteration.
- Changes star refinement to loop until there is no more improvement,
instead of running the step only once.
When the starting point for integer motion estimation was selected among
the merge candidates, the candidate motion vectors were always rounded
down. This commit changes the rounding so that they are rounded to the
nearest integer MV instead.
- Fixes two errors in calculating the POC for the reference frame for
temporal candidate MV scaling.
- Fixes using the MV for the wrong direction when the temporal MV
predictor block uses bi-prediction.
Fixes#160.
Adds struct inter_search_info_t for holding the parameters that are used
by most function related to inter search. Passing the parameters in
a single struct greatly reduces the number of parameters for many
functions.
Inter costs are computed using SAD except when fractional motion
estimation or bi-prediction is enabled. This commit changes
search_pu_inter_ref to recalculate the cost with SATD. Fixes inter/intra
cost comparisons since intra costs are always SATD costs.
Adds field max_inter_ref_lcu to encoder_control_t. It is used to set up
inter-LCU dependencies in encoder_state_encode_leaf and restrict motion
vectors in fracmv_within_tile.
When using WPP and OWF, the first CTU of a row depends on the last CTU
of the row below in the reference frame. This is necessary when SAO is
enabled since we currently do SAO for a whole CTU row at a time. When
SAO is disabled, however, it is unnecessary to wait for the whole row.
Changes CTUs to depend only on the CTU below in the reference frame
instead of the whole row when WPP and OWF are enabled and SAO disabled.
Gives a significant speedup when running on a machine with many CPU
cores.
When using --me-early-termination=sensitive, early termination of inter
search used to always return the starting point if no tested motion
vector was good enough to continue the search. This commit changes
early_termination to always return the best motion vector and cost
found.
Some of the fields in encoder_control_t were simply copies of the
corresponding fields in kvz_config. This commit drops the copied fields
in favor of using the fields in encoder_control_t.cfg directly.
The kvz_config struct is created by the user but kvazaar keeps a pointer
to it. It is easy to break things by modifying the configuration outside
kvazaar. In addition, kvazaar modifies the struct even though it is has
a const modifier.
This commit changes the field cfg in encoder_control_t to be a copy of
the kvz_config struct instead of a pointer, removing modifications to
the const struct and allowing users to do whatever they want with it
after opening the encoder.
When the number of merge candidates was five, biprediction search would
read past the bounds of the priority list arrays. Fixed to limit the
search to the first four candidates.
The function search_pu_inter_ref incorrectly rounded the coordinates of
the block to down to a multiple 8 pixels. Small SMP and AMP blocks may
start at coordinates that are not multiples of 8. Fixed by removing the
rounding.
Fixes a failing assert when --mv-constraint is used with --smp or --amp.
Subpixel motion estimation return 0-vector when no subpixel vector is
within the constraint. Fix is to not call subpixel motion estimation
when the integer vector is not within the constraint.
This is to prepare for changing the code using the floating point table
to use the fixed point table instead.
This also allows reducing the size of the fractional part, which was
useful for finding every place where the the fixed point presentation
is relied upon.
Adds fields lambda, lambda_sqrt and qp to encoder_state_t. Drops field
cur_lambda_cost_sqrt from encoder_state_config_frame_t and renames
cur_lambda_cost to lambda.
Arrange the decision tree such that there is only 3 branches on the
most common paths and the more likely branch is always fall-through.
A profile guided optimization pass would probably do something similar.
A lot of time is being taken up by this function on ultrafast, and it
doesn't do a very good job. This change aims to both simplify the
logic and make the estimate better.
The logic is simplified by using a look up for the step mvd bit cost
step function instead of mimicking the binarization process. The
estimation is made better by checking fractional cabac bit costs.
The new function returns the same results as
kvz_get_mvd_coding_cost_cabac, but is also faster than the old
function.
Enables search for 2NxN and Nx2N partition modes for 8x8 CUs and 2NxnU,
2NxnD, nLx2N and nRx2N partition modes for 16x16 CUs.
Changes the loop for copying reconstructed luma pixels in
kvz_inter_recon_lcu to use 4 byte chunks instead of 8 byte chunks since
it is now possible to have 4 pixel wide blocks.
The includes should make more sense now and not just happen to compile
due to headers included from other headers.
Used a modified version of IWYU. Modifications were to attribute int8_t
and so on to stdint.h instead of sys/types.h and immintrin.h instead of
more specific headers.

based on clang version 3.9.0 (trunk 264728)
The OWF wpp limit code assumed square blocks, and as such did not work
correctly when height != width. This changes the relevant code to consider
both height and width.
The previous reasoning used deblocking and fractional motion estimation
together to arrive at a margin of 4 pixels. This was wrong, and with
either of these off, half pixel chroma interpolation could use pixels
outside the intended region.
Deblocking does not currently affect the margin needed.
The check was done in regard to the wrong dimension, allowing the
access to unfinished parts of the frame when coding multiple frames
at the same time.
Earlier fix that fixed the supply side of the cu_array to take tile
coordinates into account should have been accompanied with this one
that does the same thing to demand side.
If 0,0 vector is illegal, it's possible that no legal movement vector,
is found, in which case a large cost is returned instead. The cost
overflowed and there is all sorts of silliness with converting from
double to int, but I'm not going to fix all of it because when we
remove the doubles it will all get fixed.
Add module information to all header files.
Update all header file documentations to briefly say what they are, and
to use the javadoc format so the brief actually gets included into the
doxygen documentation.
Remove \file from implementation files, in order to not repeat the info
from the header files.
Add files under strategies and tools to Doxygen and update the Doxygen
settings to be just plain better.
Make README be the main page of Doxygen documentation.
- Updates function search_mv_full so that it compiles and handles
non-square blocks.
- Enables compilation of search_mv_full.
- Sets full search radius to 32.
- Enables selecting full mv search with "--me full".
Changes search_frac and kvz_search_cu_iter to use kvz_satd_any_size for
computing the SATDs instead of getting the SATD function with
kvz_pixels_get_satd_func.
Adds parameter height to functions kvz_inter_recon_lcu and
kvz_inter_recon_lcu_bipred and makes them work on non-square sizes.
Fractional reconstruction functions do not handle non-square blocks yet.
Increases the MV safety margin of OWF from 2 to 3 when deblocking
is used and 4 when both deblocking and FME are used.
Fractional pixel motion estimation can move the vector one more pixel
down causing checksum error. This fixes that error by increasing the
OWF safety margin and changes the interface, so that different margin
can be used when FME or deblocking are not in use.
Now outputs a pointer to a block with guaranteed padding for filtering.
Only generate extra pixels if samples are needed out of bounds.
Use memcpy otherwise.
