| - Next version: |
| * Add incremental decoding support for images containing ALPH and ICCP chunks. |
| |
| - 3/20/13: version 0.3.0 |
| This is a binary compatible release. |
| * WebPINewRGB/WebPINewYUVA accept being passed a NULL output buffer |
| and will perform auto-allocation. |
| * default filter option is now '-strong -f 60' |
| * encoding speed-up for lossy methods 3 to 6 |
| * alpha encoding can be done in parallel to lossy using 'cwebp -mt ...' |
| * color profile, metadata (XMP/EXIF) and animation support finalized in the |
| container. |
| * various NEON assembly additions |
| Tool updates / additions: |
| * gif2webp added |
| * vwebp given color profile & animation support |
| * cwebp can preserve color profile / metadata with '-metadata' |
| |
| - 10/30/12: version 0.2.1 |
| * Various security related fixes |
| * cwebp.exe: fix import errors on Windows XP |
| * enable DLL builds for mingw targets |
| |
| - 8/3/12: version 0.2.0 |
| * Add support for ARGB -> YUVA conversion for lossless decoder |
| New functions: WebPINewYUVA, WebPIDecGetYUVA |
| * Add stats for lossless and alpha encoding |
| * Security related hardening: allocation and size checks |
| * Add PAM output support to dwebp |
| |
| - 7/19/12: version 0.1.99 |
| * This is a pre-release of 0.2.0, not an rc to allow for further |
| incompatible changes based on user feedback. |
| * Alpha channel encode/decode support. |
| * Lossless encoder/decoder. |
| * Add TIFF input support to cwebp. |
| Incompatible changes: |
| * The encode ABI has been modified to support alpha encoding. |
| * Deprecated function WebPINew() has been removed. |
| * Decode function signatures have changed to consistently use size_t over |
| int/uint32_t. |
| * decode_vp8.h is no longer installed system-wide. |
| * cwebp will encode the alpha channel if present. |
| |
| - 9/19/11: version 0.1.3 |
| * Advanced decoding APIs. |
| * On-the-fly cropping and rescaling of images. |
| * SSE2 instructions for decoding performance optimizations on x86 based platforms. |
| * Support Multi-threaded decoding. |
| * 40% improvement in Decoding performance. |
| * Add support for RGB565, RGBA4444 & ARGB image colorspace. |
| * Better handling of large picture encoding. |
| |
| - 3/25/11: version 0.1.2 |
| * Incremental decoding: picture can be decoded byte-by-byte if needs be. |
| * lot of bug-fixes, consolidation and stabilization |
| |
| - 2/23/11: initial release of version 0.1, with the new encoder |
| - 9/30/10: initial release version with only the lightweight decoder |
