[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] libvpx: Disable frame dropping as rate control method

[Martin Storsjö]

Hi,

libvpx has the feature of dropping frames as a rate control method, 
enabled by default:

  * Temporal resampling allows the codec to "drop" frames as a strategy to
  * meet its target data rate. This can cause temporal discontinuities in
  * the encoded video, which may appear as stuttering during playback. This
  * trade-off is often acceptable, but for many applications is not. It can
  * be disabled in these cases.

I'm not particularly fond of this feature, I'd much rather get a bitrate 
slightly too high compared to suddenly getting half the framerate. The 
attached patch disables this in the libvpx wrapper - is this ok as 
default, or should it be changeable through some AVCodecContext field?
