• Update dav1d.cmd to point at the 0.7.1 tag

• Reorganize iccjpeg code back into its own files for licensing conveniences

0.7.1 - 2020-04-16

• stss box parsing for keyframe information
• avifBool avifDecoderIsKeyframe(avifDecoder * decoder, uint32_t frameIndex);
• uint32_t avifDecoderNearestKeyframe(avifDecoder * decoder, uint32_t frameIndex);
• avifResult avifDecoderNthImage(avifDecoder * decoder, uint32_t frameIndex);
• aviffuzz prints keyframe information as it repeatedly decodes

Changed

• internally renamed codec function “decode” to “open”, as that's all it does
• dav1d codec's open function no longer does an initial unnecessary feed
• avifCodecDecodeInput now stores an array of avifSample which know if they're keyframes
• moved codec flushing code into avifDecoderFlush() so it is available to avifDecoderNthImage
• ptsInTimescales is now calculated independently of frame decode order

0.3.9 - 2019-09-25

Changed

• Split avifRawData and avifStream into read-only (const) and read/write versions, updated code accordingly
• Fix a few clang/macOS warnings

0.3.8 - 2019-09-04

Changed

• Reverted codec_aom and libaom to use previous SHA (v1.0.0-errata1 is ancient)

0.3.7 - 2019-09-04 - DO NOT USE THIS VERSION

Added

• Check for proper width/height/depth when decoding alpha with dav1d, matching libaom's impl

Changed

• Updated codec_aom and libaom to use v1.0.0-errata1

0.3.6 - 2019-07-25

Added

• Exposed tile encoding to avifEncoder

0.3.5 - 2019-07-25

Changed

• Fixed copypasta bug in libaom encoding quantizer setup

0.3.4 - 2019-07-25

Added

• When the AVIF container does not contain a color profile, fallback to the color OBU's nclx

0.3.3 - 2019-07-24

Added

• new helper function avifPeekCompatibleFileType()
• expose ioStats on avifDecoder again (currently only interesting when reading items)

Changed

• Fixed some warnings (removed unused variables and a bad cast)
• Add a define in dav1d layer for supporting older dav1d codecs
• Enabled tons of warnings, and warnings-as-errors; Fixed associated fallout
• codec_dav1d: disambiguate “needs more data” and “no more frames” in feed data pump

0.3.2 - 2019-07-23

Added

• Added ext/aom.cmd to perform a local checkout of the aom codebase, as an alternative to a real submodule. This allows downstream projects to use libavif without recursive submodule issues.
• AppVeyor and Travis scripts now explicitly clone libaom into ext/ as an alternative to a submodule.

Changed

• Remove ext/aom as a submodule. If libavif users want to build aom from ext/, they must enable AVIF_BUILD_AOM and supply their own local copy.
• Move the handful of public domain gb_math functions used by colr.c and eliminate the dependence on the gb library
• Detect when libaom or libdav1d is being included by a parent CMake project and allow it
• Offer libavif's include dir alongside the library in CMake (target_include_directories)

0.3.1 - 2019-07-22

Changed

• Moved dependency on libm to avif executables, instead of directly on the library
• Minor changes to README examples

0.3.0 - 2019-07-22

Added

• new CMake option AVIF_CODEC_AOM to enable/disable the usage of AOM's codec (default: on)
• new CMake option AVIF_CODEC_DAV1D to enable/disable the usage of dav1d's codec (default: off)
• codec_dav1d.c, which provides decoding via libdav1d
• fuzz.sh which builds with afl-clang and runs afl-fuzz
• aviffuzz tool, used in fuzzing script
• fuzz inputs made with colorist
• .clang-format file
• avifArray*() functions for basic dynamic arrays when parsing
• moov box parsing
• now reads ‘avis’ brands
• Split avifDecoderRead() into components for image sequences:
  • avifDecoderSetSource()
  • avifDecoderParse()
  • avifDecoderNextImage()
  • avifImageCopy()
  • avifDecoderReset()
• Added decoder and image timings for image sequences

Changed

• Reorganized internal struct avifCodec to accomodate multiple codecs simultaneously (compile time; not exposed to API)
• Fix some compiler warnings
• Sanity check offsets and sizes in items table before using
• Bail out of box header advertises an impossible size
• Ran clang-format on all of src and include
• Fix copypasta leading to a memory leak in RGB planes
• Switched items and properties during parse to use dynamic arrays
• Refactored codec API to not require each codec to maintain per-plane decoder instances
• avifImage can now “not own” its planes and directly point at decoder planes to avoid copies
• aviffuzz attempts to decode all images in source material twice (using avifDecoderReset())
• Switch decoder->quality to explicit [minQuantizer, maxQuantizer], update assoc. constants
• Add examples to README

0.2.0 - 2019-06-12

Changed

• ftyp - Change major_brand to avif
• ftyp - Reorder compatible_brands, add MA1A or MA1B when appropriate
• Write meta box before mdat box for streaming friendliness

0.1.2 - 2019-04-18

Added

• AVIF_NCLX_COLOUR_PRIMARIES_P3 (convenient mirrored value)
