Takes into account whether there's pairing and if there's an LFE channel.
An SCE has more bits than CPE/2 since IS and M/S save quite a lot of bits
when channels are paired. And most of the SCEs we have are in surround
layouts which map it to the center channel, which usually carries all of
the dialogue and compression artifacts there are easily audiable.
Also refactors the init function a little bit and labels some parts of it.

Change the condition for application of the M/S transform to match
that of the decoder. Namely, that no special coding books must be
in use in either channel. While the condition ought to be
equivalent to the current one when the invariant of is_mask is
kept, matching the decoder's condition is safer and easier to
maintain.
The type of last_frame_pb_count was chosen to be an int since overflow
is impossible (the spec says the maximum bits per frame is 6144 per
channel and the encoder checks for that).

These variables are coming from mpegvideoenc where are supposedly used
as bit counters on various frame properties. However their use is
unclear as they lack documentation, are available only from a very small
subset of encoders, and they are hardly used in the wild. Also frame_bits
in aacenc is employed in a similar way.
Remove this functionality from AVCodecContex, these variable are mostly
frame properties, and too few encoders support setting them with anything
useful.

Thiss commit removes the experimental flag from the native AAC Encoder
and thus makes it the default.
After a lot of work, done by myself and Claudio Freire, the quality of
this encoder rivals and surpasses libfdk_aac in some situations. The
encoder had instability issues earlier which prevented it from having
its experimental flag removed, however the last commits done by Claudio
removed the last known source of instability and solved a lot of
problems which were previously observed. The issues were caused by the
various coding tools interfering with the scalefactor indices. Thus,
with these problems solved, it should now be possible to declare this
encoder as the default and recommend that the users should use it
instead of others provided by external libraries, as it is both faster
and has a subjectively higher quality with selected tracks.
The encoder has still yet to be fine tuned for every possible audio file
type like music or voice, so it is hoped that with the experimental flag
removed the users should be able to provide feedback and make the
encoder better than the alternatives for every type of audio and at
every bitrate.

This coder produces a much lower quality audio than the rest, is much
slower and is unstable. Hasn't been updated for a very long time as
well, hence it is more appropriate to remove it since it also depends on
a big burden of a code (the encode_window_bands_info function which is
just as old, just as unstable and bad and in no way modifiable or
fixable).

This patch does 4 things, all of which interact and thus it
woudln't be possible to commit them separately without causing
either quality regressions or assertion failures.
Fate comparison targets don't all reflect improvements in
quality, yet listening tests show substantially improved quality
and stability.
1. Increase SF range utilization.
The spec requires SF delta values to be constrained within the
range -60..60. The previous code was applying that range to
the whole SF array and not only the deltas of consecutive values,
because doing so requires smarter code: zeroing or otherwise
skipping a band may invalidate lots of SF choices.
This patch implements that logic to allow the coders to utilize
the full dynamic range of scalefactors, increasing quality quite
considerably, and fixing delta-SF-related assertion failures,
since now the limitation is enforced rather than asserted.
2. PNS tweaks
The previous modification makes big improvements in twoloop's
efficiency, and every time that happens PNS logic needs to be
tweaked accordingly to avoid it from stepping all over twoloop's
decisions. This patch includes modifications of the sort.
3. Account for lowpass cutoff during PSY analysis
The closer PSY's allocation is to final allocation the better
the quality is, and given these modifications, twoloop is now
very efficient at avoiding holes. Thus, to compute accurate
thresholds, PSY needs to account for the lowpass applied
implicitly during twoloop (by zeroing high bands).
This patch makes twoloop set the cutoff in psymodel's context
the first time it runs, and makes PSY account for it during
threshold computation, making PE and threshold computations
closer to the final allocation and thus achieving better
subjective quality.
4. Tweaks to RC lambda tracking loop in relation to PNS
Without this tweak some corner cases cause quality regressions.
Basically, lambda needs to react faster to overall bitrate
efficiency changes since now PNS can be quite successful in
enforcing maximum bitrates, when PSY allocates too many bits
to the lower bands, suppressing the signals RC logic uses to
lower lambda in those cases and causing aggressive PNS.
This tweak makes PNS much less aggressive, though it can still
use some further tweaks.
Also update MIPS specializations and adjust fuzz

When both M/S coding and PNS are enabled, scalefactors
and coding books would be mistakenly clobbered when setting
the M/S flag on PNS'd bands. The flag needs to be set to
signal the generation of correlated noise, but the scalefactors,
coefficients and the coding books need to be kept intact.
It didn't work out because of the exceptions that needed to be made
for the "-1" cases and was overall more confusing that just manually
checking and setting options for each profile.
Long Term Prediction allows for prediction of spectral coefficients
via the previously decoded time-dependent samples. This feature
works well with harmonic content 2 or more frames long, like speech,
human or non-human, piano music or any constant tones at very low
bitrates.
It should be noted that the current coder is highly efficient and
the rate control system is unable to encode files at extremely
low bitrates (less than 14kbps seems to be impossible) so this
extension isn't capable of optimum operation. Dramatic difference
is observable with some types of audio and speech but for the most
part the audiable differences are subtle. The spectrum looks better
however so the encoder is able to harvest the additional bits that
this feature provies, should the user choose to enable it. So
it's best to enable this feature only if encoding at the absolutely
lowest bitrate that the encoder is capable of.
Apparently it was set to be enabled by default but after the
profile commits it was reverted to be off by default because
I didn't notice.
Works well so (re)enable it.
This commit adds the ability for a profile to set the default
options, as well as for the user to override such options
by simply stating them in the command line while still keeping
the same profile, as long as those options are still permitted by
the profile.
Example: setting the profile to aac_low (the default) will turn
PNS and IS on. They can be disabled by -aac_pns 0 and -aac_is 0,
respectively. Turning on -aac_pred 1 will cause the profile to be
elevated to aac_main, as long as no options forbidding aac_main
have been entered (like AAC-LTP, which will be pushed soon).
A useful feature is that by setting the profile to mpeg2_aac_low,
all MPEG4 features will be disabled and if the user tries to enable
them then the program will exit with an error. This profile is
signalled with the same bitstream as aac_low (MPEG4) but some devices
and decoders will fail if any MPEG4 features have been enabled.
This commit implements support for 7.1 channel audio. There's no
more predefined bitstream channel mappings so going beyond 8 channels
(and 7 channels exactly) will require programmable channel elements,
which is already underway.
The bulk of calls to quantize_band_cost are replaced
by a call to a version that memoizes, greatly improving
performance, since during coefficient search there is
a great deal of repeat work.
Memoization cannot always be applied, so do this in a
different function, and leave the original as-is.
This finalizes merging of the work in the patches in ticket #2686.
Improvements to twoloop and RC logic are extensive.
The non-exhaustive list of twoloop improvments includes:
- Tweaks to distortion limits on the RD optimization phase of twoloop
- Deeper search in twoloop
- PNS information marking to let twoloop decide when to use it
(turned out having the decision made separately wasn't working)
- Tonal band detection and priorization
- Better band energy conservation rules
- Strict hole avoidance
For rate control:
- Use psymodel's bit allocation to allow proper use of the bit
reservoir. Don't work against the bit reservoir by moving lambda
in the opposite direction when psymodel decides to allocate more/less
bits to a frame.
- Retry the encode if the effective rate lies outside a reasonable
margin of psymodel's allocation or the selected ABR.
- Log average lambda at the end. Useful info for everyone, but especially
for tuning of the various encoder constants that relate to lambda
feedback.
Psy:
- Do not apply lowpass with a FIR filter, instead just let the coder
zero bands above the cutoff. The FIR filter induces group delay,
and while zeroing bands causes ripple, it's lost in the quantization
noise.
- Experimental VBR bit allocation code
- Tweak automatic lowpass filter threshold to maximize audio bandwidth
at all bitrates while still providing acceptable, stable quality.
I/S:
- Phase decision fixes. Unrelated to #2686, but the bugs only surfaced
when the merge was finalized. Measure I/S band energy accounting for
phase, and prevent I/S and M/S from being applied both.
PNS:
- Avoid marking short bands with PNS when they're part of a window
group in which there's a large variation of energy from one window
to the next. PNS can't preserve those and the effect is extremely
noticeable.
M/S:
- Implement BMLD protection similar to the specified in
ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Since M/S decision
doesn't conform to section 6.1, a different method had to be
implemented, but should provide equivalent protection.
- Move the decision logic closer to the method specified in
ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Specifically,
make sure M/S needs less bits than dual stereo.
- Don't apply M/S in bands that are using I/S
Now, this of course needed adjustments in the compare targets and
fuzz factors of the AAC encoder's fate tests, but if wondering why
the targets go up (more distortion), consider the previous coder
was using too many bits on LF content (far more than required by
psy), and thus those signals will now be more distorted, not less.
The extra distortion isn't audible though, I carried extensive
ABX testing to make sure.
A very similar patch was also extensively tested by Kamendo2 in
the context of #2686.
This patch modifies the encode frame function to
retry encoding the frame when the resulting bit count
is too far off target, but only adjusting lambda
in small, incremental step. It also makes the logic
more conservative - otherwise it will contend with
bit reservoir-related variations in bit allocation,
and result in artifacts when frame have to be truncated
(usually at high bit rates transitioning from low
complexity to high complexity).
This commit reorders the coding tools such that they're doing what
the decoder does in reverse order. The very first thing the decoder
does is to decode M/S stereo if that's signalled, then prediction,
IS, and finally TNS and PNS in another function.
adjust_frame_information()'s application of IS and M/S was taken
out into two separate functions since prediction doesn't expect
to get the raw coefficients but rathe the coefficients at that
part of the encoding process.
The results show a much better PSNR when any combination of
Intensity Stereo, Mid/Side stereo and Prediction is used, which
is a sign of an increased encoder efficiency as well as the fact
that the decoder gets what it expects.
Otherwise, with only IS, PNS or prediction there are neither
regressions nor improvements except in the case of IS, which
now by itself (or with PNS) is less prone to artifacts. Enabling
M/S (using stereo_mode) as well will also reduce stereo artifacts
induced by IS, so in the very near future M/S may be enabled
by default.

If the selected coder isn't twoloop, this commit temporarily
disables IS and PNS.
The problem is in the encode_window_bands_info() being confused
and setting invalid band_types for non-marked (normal) bands.
