libvpx 1.8

Reported by: Antoine Martin Owned by: Antoine Martin
Priority: major Milestone: 2.5
Component: encodings Version: 2.4.x
Keywords: Cc:

Description

Release notes: ​https://chromium.googlesource.com/webm/libvpx/+/refs/tags/v1.8.0: For real-time encoding, speed 7 has improved by ~5-10%. Encodes targeted at screen sharing have improved when the content changes significantly (slide sharing) or scrolls. There is a new speed 9 setting for mobile devices which is about 10-20% faster than speed 8.

We want that.

r21538 adds speed=9 support for vp9 if VPX_ENCODER_ABI_VERSION>=23.

All this needs testing..

It looks like this broke building on Centos7?

Building or installation?
What is the command that you used? What repository?

Replying to Antoine Martin:

Building or installation?

I noticed this during a build while installing yum dependencies.
But it appears to be happening with just an update from the beta repo.

 You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
 You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

What is the command that you used? What repository?

sudo yum update

with xpra and xpra beta repo's enabled.

Ah, you had me worried there!
The beta repo can occasionally break. I will fix.

Here's what happened: we wanted to go back to using system provided versions for libvpx (r18771), but that doesn't work when building newer versions of ffmpeg as those require libvpx 1.4 or later, and centos7 ships with version 1.3

So r22001 switches back to libvpx-xpra for centos7.

Pushed new xpra centos 7.6 beta packages together with a libvpx 1.8 rebuild and ffmpeg 4.1.1.
(more centos builds on the way)

All centos7 test systems update fine here using the beta repo, please shout if not.

Works fine for me, thanks for the fix.
