• avcodec : Remove libaacplus

  24 janvier 2016, par Timothy Gu

  avcodec : Remove libaacplus
  TODO : bump minor
  It’s inferior in quality to fdk-aac and has an arguably more problematic
  
  license.
  As early as 2012, a HydrogenAudio user reported :
  > It has however one huge advantage : much better quality at low bitrates than
  
  > faac and libaacplus.
  (https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?PHPSESSID=ckiq394pdglka0kj2fin6ij8t7&topic=95989.msg804633#msg804633)
  I myself have made a few spectrograms for a comparison of the two
  
  encoders as well. The FDK output is consistently better than the
  
  libaacplus one, in all bitrates I tested.
  libaacplus license is 3GPP + LGPLv2. 3GPP copyright notice is completely
  
  proprietory, as follows :
  > No part may be reproduced except as authorized by written permission.
  
  >
  
  > The copyright and the foregoing restriction extend to reproduction in

  > All rights reserved.
  (The latest 26410-d00 zip from 3GPP has the same notice, but the copyright
  
  year is changed to 2015)
  The copyright part of the FDK AAC license (section 2) is a copyleft
  
  license that permits redistribution under certain conditions (and
  
  therefore the LGPL + libfdk-aac combination is not prohibited by
  
  configure) :

• Evolution #3962 : Générer des JPEG progressifs

  18 juin 2017, par Michel Bystranowski

  Mmm, ça a l’air un peu plus compliqué qu’au premier abord effectivement. J’ai trouvé cet article qui compare le taux de compression et recommande de ne le faire que pour les fichiers de plus de 10k, sous peine d’obtenir des fichiers plus gros (https://yuiblog.com/blog/2008/12/05/imageopt-4/). Du coup il faudrait s’arranger pour ne cibler que les gros JPEGs.

  Par côté compatibilité des navigateurs ça semble ok pour tous les navigateurs récents (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_layout_engines_%28graphics%29#JPEG_support).

• What H.264 encoding profile is considered "safe" in 2017 ?

  12 avril 2017, par degenerate

  Have streaming services adopted a certain H.264 profile as "standard" or "safe" for use in 2017 ? For example are all modern Youtube videos at least "High" profile for H.264 ?

  Or does Youtube continue to serve all encoding profiles, down to "Baseline" depending on hardware ?

  I would like to start encoding my videos with "High" profile or higher, but cannot find any recent documentation on which profile is standard practice or safe to use.

  Searching google is not fruitful :

  Old blog post from 2014 :

  I cannot find any updated 2017 information on this.
