General notes
|
|
|
|
|
-------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This release is binary compatible with 0.8.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Our work on the 'ffmpeg' command-line tool has resulted in
|
|
|
|
|
extensions to its command line interface, its also compatible with
|
|
|
|
|
both our 0.8 ffmpeg and a tool called avconv
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Additionally, this release introduces a number of new interesting codecs
|
|
|
|
|
such as the Apple Prores, Flash Screen Video 2 and Windows Media Image,
|
|
|
|
|
and muxers such as LATM or CELT in Ogg, among many others. Moreover, our
|
|
|
|
|
H.264 decoder has been improved to decode 4:2:2 material and our libx264
|
|
|
|
|
wrapper now allows to produce 4:2:2 and 4:4:4 video.
