decoder:
- fixed incorrect scaling of filter states for the smallest quantization
step sizes
- NLSF2A now limits the prediction gain of LPC filters
encoder:
- increased damping of LTP coefficients in LTP analysis
- increased white noise fraction in noise shaping LPC analysis
- introduced maximum total prediction gain. Used by Burg's method to
exit early if prediction gain is exceeded. This improves packet
loss robustness and numerical robustness in Burg's method
- Prefiltered signal is now in int32 Q10 domain, from int16 Q0
- Increased max number of iterations in CBR gain control loop from 5 to 6
- Removed useless code from LTP scaling control
- Optimization: smarter LPC loop unrolling
- Switched default win32 compile mode to be floating-point
resampler:
- made resampler have constant delay of 0.75 ms; removed delay
compensation from silk code.
- removed obsolete table entries (~850 Bytes)
- increased downsampling filter order from 16 to 18/24/36 (depending on
frequency ratio)
- reoptimized filter coefficients
Only encoder changes were necessary because this uses the same
"redundant frames" mechanism as SILK<->CELT switching.
This also fixes a regression introduced in 78291b27 that was
causing the encoder to go back and forth between bandwidths when
SILK wasn't ready to change.
This is achieved by running the encoding process in a loop and
padding when we don't reach the exact rate. It also implements
VBR-with-cap, which means we no longer need to artificially decrease
the SILK bandwidth when it's close to the cap.
- There was a bug where the decoder resampler was not properly initialized
when fs_kHz == API_fs_kHz. In that case the resampler would continue to
upsample, and the output was corrupt.
- The delay value in the decoder was taken from the state before it was
potentially updated. This caused the decoder to apply the new dalay value one
frame late
- The encoder and decoder states are now updated more consistently, when
the sampling rate changes (pesq liked these changes)
- Properly resetting the side channel encoder and decoder for the first
frame with side coding active again
- Faster updating the "ratio" value in the LR_to_MS() code for large
prediction values means that for certain extreme/artificial input
signals the output looks better
Adds SILK delay compensation that depends on encode and decode sampling
rate, as well as SILK internal coding rate. This ensures that the SILK
part of Opus is always in sync with the CELT part no matter what the
sampling rates are. It also increases the resampling delay to 1.15 ms
(was previously 0.48 ms).
