- Denoise
- hqdn3d filter now accepts individual settings for each chroma channel (Cb, Cr)
- New NlMeans denoiser, very slow, but results are significantly better than hqdn3d
- Presets
- Added Windows Phone 8 Preset
- Updated Libraries
- x264 r2479-dd79a61
- Libav v10.1
- libbluray 0.5.0
- libavformat is now used for muxing instead of mp4v2 and libmkv
- "Large File Size" checkbox has now been removed for MP4, as the \
new muxer will transition to 64bit files automatically
- mpeg2dec has also been replaced in favour of using libav
- The LibAV AAC encoder is now the default as FAAC has been remove
- This encoder is adequate for most, but until it improves a bit further, we \
have enabled support for the FDK-AAC encoder also
- This FDK option is a temporary measure until the LibAV encoder improves
- Note that FDK-AAC is much slower and will likely bottleneck the encode \
process, but will produce better quality audio
- H.265 encoder
- Now available through x265 1.4
- While this encoder is still fairly new, we have seen some promising results \
come out of it; it's still under heavy active development and is only going to \
improve over time
- Added VP8 Encoder (using libvpx)
- Available in MKV files only
- Removed mcdeint deinterlace and decomb modes (this relied on the snow encoder \
in libav which has been removed by upstream)
