Schrödinger 1.0.6
=================

A new release of Schrödinger is available. Schrödinger (or "schro"
for short) is a cross-platform implementation of the Dirac video
compression specification as a C library. Many media frameworks
such as GStreamer and ffmpeg use schro to encode and decode Dirac
video.

The Dirac project maintains two encoder implementations: dirac-research,
a research encoder, and Schrödinger, which is faster but lower quality.
Some encoding features from dirac-research have been moved to schro
for this release, more will be in future releases.

New in this release:

 - Requires liboil-0.3.16
 - New configure flag '--disable-encoder' useful for embedded
   systems that don't require the encoder.
 - New constant-quality encoding mode, enabled by setting the encoder
   setting 'rate-control' to 6, and adjusting 'quality' from 0 to 10.
   (Interesting range is 3-7).
 - Various encoder improvements
 - Speed improvements in decoder
 - API additions for parsing streams in the decoder
 - API improvements handling interlaced video
 - Rewrite of the GStreamer elements, including new base classes
   for video encoding and decoding
 - Moved extra GStreamer elements to Cog
  - Experimental code that uses Orc instead of liboil (--enable-orc)
