Updated X265 library to version 4.0 was checked into GIT. It deserves more generic testing but I have encoded at least 4 files and decoded at least 3 by loading and playing. Thanks to Andrew, a patch to ffmpeg 7.0 was added to update x265 into a working set. On Thu, Sep 26, 2024 at 2:58 AM Andrew Randrianasulu via Cin < [email protected]> wrote:

======
Version 4.0
===========
Release date - 13th September, 2024.
New feature
-----------
1. Alpha Channel feature.
2. Screen Content Coding (SCC).
3. MV-HEVC feature.
Enhancements to existing features
---------------------------------
1. Added support for the VMAF v3.x.
API changes
-----------
1. Add command line parameter for Alpha Channel feature :option:`--alpha`.
2. Add command line parameter for SCC feature :option:`--scc 1`.
3. Add command line parameters for the MV-HEVC feature :option:`--multiview-config "multiview_config.txt"`.
Optimizations
---------------------
1. Arm SIMD optimizations: Several time-consuming scalar C functions now have SIMD implementations on Arm platforms. Existing Arm SIMD implementations have also been optimized. These optimizations result in up to 57% faster encoding compared to release 3.6.
2. Arm SIMD optimizations include use of Armv8.4 DotProd, Armv8.6 I8MM, and Armv9 SVE2 instruction set extensions. The following algorithms now have optimized SIMD implementations: SAD, SSE, DCT, SAO, convolution, quantization, intra_planar, intraFilter, intrapred DC and IDCT16x16.
Bug fixes
---------
1. Fix for y4m pipe input broken.
2. Fix SCC crash on multipass encode.
3. Fix mcstf when :option:`--bframes` value was less than 5.
4. Fix lowpass DCT for high bit depth.
5. Added build support for Visual Studio 17.
6. Fix issue in default code flow and memory leak.
7. Framethreads tuning for Windows ARM devices.
8. Fix scc crash on multipass encode.
====
I think only ffmpeg 7.1 (already branched)
will have multiview (stereo?) HEVC decoding, not
even sure how(if) it can be represented in cinelerras ...
Time to test, I guess.
