wavpack: updated to 5.8.0
5.8.0
Much of the development for this release stemmed from the discovery of \
situations where the quantization noise introduced with the hybrid mode was \
higher than expected, in particular with very low bitrates (e.g., < 3 bps) \
and high sample rates. This was traced to feedback in the decorrelation loop and \
has been addressed. Also, audio samples were discovered where the DNS (dynamic \
noise shaping) algorithm produced sub-optimal shaping, and this has been \
addressed with an all-new DNS algorithm. Finally, some issues were fixed that \
caused the "extra" mode performance to degrade with multithreading and \
also with the hybrid mode.
The other major change is that multithreading is now turned on by default for \
the command-line programs, assuming that a multicore CPU is detected. This can \
be disabled with a new option --no-threads.
