+ <a href="download.html#release_7.1">FFmpeg 7.1 "Péter"</a>, a new

+ <p>
+ The more important highlights of the release are that the VVC decoder, merged as experimental in version 7.0,
+ has had enough time to mature and be optimized enough to be declared as stable. The coded is starting to gain
+ traction with broadcast standardization bodies.<br>
+ Support has been added for a native AAC USAC (part of the xHE-AAC coding system) decoder, with the format starting

+ <p>
+ Support for Vulkan encoding, with H264 and HEVC was merged. This finally allows fully Vulkan-based decode-filter-encode
+ pipelines, by having a sink for Vulkan frames, other than downloading or displaying them. The encoders have feature-parity
+ with their VAAPI implementation counterparts. Khronos has announced that support for AV1 encoding is also coming soon to Vulkan,
+ and FFmpeg is aiming to have day-one support.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ In addition to the above, this release has had a lot of important internal work done. By far the standout highlight here
+ are the improvements made for full-range images. Previously, color range data had two paths, no negotiation,
+ and was unreliably forwarded to filters, encoders, muxers. Work on cleaning the system up started more than 10
+ years ago, however this stalled due to how fragile the system was, and that breaking behaviour would be unacceptable.
+ The new system fixes this, so now color range is forwarded correctly and consistently everywhere needed, and also
+ laid the path for more advanced forms of negotiation.<br>
+ Cropping metadata is now supported with Matroska and MP4 formats. This metadata is important not only for archival,
+ but also with AV1, as hardware encoders require its signalling due to the codec not natively supporting one.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ As usual, we recommend that users, distributors, and system integrators to upgrade unless they use current git master.
