|  | improvements, speedup and memory optimizations, and some new features. | 
|  | There are no ABI or API breaking changes in this release. | 
|  |  | 
|  | - New Features |

|  | matrices in the distortion computation for RD search. The default | 
|  | value is "psnr". |

|  | all-intra encoding faster for high bit rate under | 
|  | "--deltaq-mode=3" mode. |

|  | encoders. Supports CBR for both one spatial layer and SVC. |

|  | encoder. The presence of AOM_IMG_FMT_NV12 can be detected at | 
|  | compile time by checking if the macro AOM_HAVE_IMG_FMT_NV12 is | 
|  | defined. |

|  | o --auto-intra-tools-off=0 (default) or 1. Only in effect if | 
|  | --deltaq-mode=3. | 
|  | o --strict-level-conformance=0 (default) or 1 | 
|  | o --fp-mt=0 (default) or 1. Only supported if libaom is built | 
|  | with -DCONFIG_FRAME_PARALLEL_ENCODE=1. | 
|  | * New aomenc options (not supported by the key-value API): | 
|  | o --nv12 | 
|  |  |

|  | * RTC-SVC: quality improvements for temporal layers. | 
|  | * AV1 RT: A new passive rate control strategy for screen content, an |

|  | 360p-720p resolutions with multiple threads | 
|  | * ~13% speedup for speed 6 and ~12% speedup for speed 9 in |

|  | 2021-05-03 v3.1.0 | 
|  | This release adds an "all intra" mode to the encoder, which significantly | 
|  | speeds up the encoding of AVIF still images at speed 6. | 
|  |  | 
|  | - Upgrading: | 
|  | All intra mode for encoding AVIF still images and AV1 all intra videos: | 
|  | AOM_USAGE_ALL_INTRA (2) can be passed as the 'usage' argument to | 
|  | aom_codec_enc_config_default(). | 
|  |  | 
|  | New encoder control IDs added: | 
|  | - AV1E_SET_ENABLE_DIAGONAL_INTRA: Enable diagonal (D45 to D203) intra | 
|  | prediction modes (0: false, 1: true (default)). Also available as | 
|  | "enable-diagonal-intra" for the aom_codec_set_option() function. | 
|  |  | 
|  | New aom_tune_metric enum value: AOM_TUNE_BUTTERAUGLI. The new aomenc option | 
|  | --tune=butteraugli was added to optimize the encoder's perceptual quality by | 
|  | optimizing the Butteraugli metric. Install libjxl (JPEG XL) and then pass | 
|  | -DCONFIG_TUNE_BUTTERAUGLI=1 to the cmake command to enable it. | 
|  |  | 
|  | Addition of support for libvmaf 2.x. | 
|  |  | 
|  | - Enhancements: | 
|  | Heap memory consumption for encoding AVIF still images is significantly | 
|  | reduced. | 
|  |  | 
|  | - Bug fixes: | 
|  | Issue 2601: third_party/libaom fails licensecheck | 
|  |  |

|  | true in find_next_key_frame() | 
|  |  | 
|  | Issue 2988: "make install" installs the aom.h header twice | 
|  |  | 
|  | Issue 2992: Incorrectly printing the temporal_id twice in dump_obu tool | 
|  |  |

|  | Issue 2999: | 
|  |  | 
|  | Issue 3000: | 
|  |  | 
|  | 2021-02-24 v3.0.0 |

|  | - AV1E_SET_VBR_CORPUS_COMPLEXITY_LAP | 
|  | - AV1E_GET_BASELINE_GF_INTERVAL |

|  | Coefficient and mode update can be turned off via | 
|  | AV1E_SET_{COEFF/MODE}_COST_UPD_FREQ. | 
|  |  | 
|  | New key & value API added, available with aom_codec_set_option() function. | 
|  |  | 
|  | Scaling API expanded to include 1/4, 3/4 and 1/8. | 
|  |  |
