VP9 asm by Ronald that made the codec usable on x86_32 and also pre-ssse3 CPUs like Phenom (Even dual core Athlons can run 1080p 30fps VP9 content now).

HEVC improvements could also be mentioned (C and asm performance improvements, and monochrome sequence support). ___ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
