+
+libtheora 1.0alpha6 (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.
+
+libtheora 1.0alpha5 (2005 August 20)
+
+ * Fixed bitrate management bugs that caused popping and encode
+ errors
+ * Fixed a crash problem with the theora_state internals not
+ being intialized properly.
+ * new utility function:
+ - theora_granule_shift()
+ * dump_video example now makes YUV4MPEG files by default, so
+ the results can be fed back to encoder_example and similar
+ tools. The old behavior is restored through the '-r' switch.
+ * ./configure now prints a summary
+ * simple unit test of the comment api under 'make check'
+ * misc code cleanup, warning and leak fixes
+
+libtheora 1.0alpha4 (2004 December 15)
+
+ * first draft of the Theora I Format Specification
+ * API documentation generated from theora.h with Doxygen
+ * fix a double-update bug in the motion analysis
+ * apply the loop filter before filling motion vector border
+ in the reference frame
+ * new utility functions:
+ - theora_packet_isheader(),
+ - theora_packet_iskeyframe()
+ - theora_granule_frame()
+ * optional support for building without floating point
+ * optional support for building without encode support
+ * various build and packaging fixes
+ * pkg-config support
+ * SymbianOS build support
+
+libtheora 1.0alpha3 (2004 March 20)
+
+ UPDATE: on 2004 July 1 the Theora I bitstream format was frozen. Files
+ produced by the libtheora 1.0alpha3 reference encoder will always be
+ decodable by the Theora I spec.
+
+ * Bitstream info header FORMAT CHANGES:
+ - move the granulepos shift field to maintain byte alignment longer.
+ - reserve 5 additional bits for subsampling and interlace flags.
+ * Bitstream setup header FORMAT CHANGES:
+ - support for a range of interpolated quant matricies.
+ - include the in-loop block filter coeff.
+ * Bitsteam data packet FORMAT CHANGES:
+ - Reserve a bit for per-block Q index selection.
+ - Flip the coded image orientation for compatibility with VP3.
+ This allows lossless transcoding of VP3 content, but files
+ encoded with earlier theora releases would play upside down.
+ * example VP3 lossless transcoder
+ * optional support for libogg2
+ * timing improvements in the example player
+ * packaging and build system updates and fixes
+
+libtheora 1.0alpha2 (2003 June 9)
+
+ * bitstream FORMAT CHANGES:
+ - store the quant tables in a third setup header for
+ future encoder flexibility
+ - store the huffman tables in the third setup header
+ - add a field for marking the colorspace to the info header
+ - add crop parameters for non-multiple-of-16 frame sizes
+ - add a second vorbiscomment-style metadata header
+ * API changes to handle multiple headers with a single
+ theora_decode_header() call, like libvorbis
+ * code cleanup and minor fixes
+ * new dump_video code example/utility
+ * experimental win32 code examples
+
+libtheora 1.0alpha1 (2002 September 25)
+
+ * First release of the theora reference implementation
+ * Port of the newly opened VP3 code to the Ogg container
+ * Rewrite of the code for portability and to use the libogg bitpacker
+
