x264 Video Codec description

A free library for encoding H264/AVC video streams

Note: x264 is still considered alpha, so errors can (and will) occur!

Here are some key features of "x264 Video Codec":

· CAVLC/CABAC
· Multi-references
· Intra: all macroblock types (16x16, 8x8, and 4x4 with all predictions)
· Inter P: all partitions (from 16x16 down to 4x4)
· Inter B: partitions from 16x16 down to 8x8 (including skip/direct)
· Ratecontrol: optional VBV, single or multipass ABR, constant quantizer
· Scene cut detection
· Adaptive B-frame placement
· B-frames as references / arbitrary frame order
· 8x8 and 4x4 adaptive spatial transform
· Lossless mode
· Custom quantization matrices
· Parallel encoding of multiple slices
· Interlacing

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Remove pre-scenecut from fprofile commands as well
· Also add psy-trellis to fprofile

What's New in This Release:

· SSE2 zigzag_interleave
· Replace PHADD with FastShuffle (more accurate naming).
· This flag represents asm functions that rely on fast SSE2 shuffle units, and thus are only faster on Phenom, Nehalem, and Penryn CPUs.

x264 Video Codec r1134

the first x32 chip [EXE]
the second x64 chip [EXE]

What's New in This Release:

latest changes:
- intra_sad_x3_8x8 assembly

 

[josagi]

x264 Video Codec r1136

What´s new in this release?
- Activate intra_sad_x3_8x8c in lookahead

 

[juli13]

x264 Video Codec r1136 for chip 64

What´s new in this release?
- Activate intra_sad_x3_8x8c in lookahead

 

[juli13]

x264 Video Codec r1137 for chip 32

latest changes:
- Faster CABAC RDO
Since the bypass case is quite unlikely, especially when doing merged sigmap/level coding,
it's faster to use a branch than a cmov.

x264 Video Codec r1139 for chip x32

latest changes:
- Various CABAC optimizations
Move calculation of b_intra out of the core residual loop and hardcode it where applicable.
Inlining cabac_mb_mvd was unnecessary and wasted tremendous amounts of code size. Inlining only cache_mvd is faster and significantly smaller.

This measures the total percentage of blocks, intra and inter, which have nonzero coefficients.
"y,uvAC,uvDC" refers to luma, chroma DC, and chroma AC blocks.
Note that skip blocks are included in this stat.
