libtheora 1.0alph6 (2006 May 30)
* Merge theora-mmx simd acceleration (x86_32 and x86_64)
* Major RTP payload specification update
* Minor format specification updates
* Fix some spurious calls to free() instead of _ogg_free()
* Fix invalid array indexing in PixelLineSearch()
* Improve robustness against invalid input
* General warning cleanup
* The offset_y member now means what every application thought it meant
(offset from the top). This will mean some old files (those with a
non-centered image created with a buggy encoder) will display differently.
[ 2005 August 20 - libtheora 1.0 alpha 5 release ]
We're pleased to announce a new release of the libtheora reference
implemenation. This is an incremental update over alpha 4, to draw
a line under recent work before we start adding optimization work.
There are two important bugfixes as well, so we recommend upgrading
to everyone. This release is source and binary compatible with 1.0
alpha 4.
Theora is Xiph.Org's first publicly released video codec, intended for
use within the Ogg's project's Ogg multimedia streaming system. Theora
is derived directly from On2's VP3 codec; currently the two are nearly
identical, varying only in encapsulating decoder tables in the bitstream
headers, but Theora will make use of this extra freedom in the future to
improve over what is possible with VP3.
