60a76f8be8 AAC encoder: enforce SF delta in PNS and IS SFs
Make sure to properly enforce maximum scalefactor delta in PNS
and I/S, not as an absolute range but relative to the previous
and first scalefactor, the latter important since PNS uses an
implicit inicial scalefactor derived from the global gain, and
encoded in a different way, which makes a big difference in the
allowed range.

6711aa21e2 AAC encoder: various fixes in M/S coding
1. Fix sf_idx and band_type addressing to address only the first
subwindow in the group (others could hold garbage values)

2. Don't step on ms_mask when is_mask is set. I/S selection
already sets the ms_mask properly and shouldn't be overridden.

3. Use mid/sid cb/sf when computing coding error, as should be
since those are the cb/sfs that will eventually be set.

4. Fix distortion computation on multi-subwindow groups (was
subtracting the bits terms multiple times)

5. Clear ms_mask when one side uses PNS and the other doesn't.
When using PNS, ms_mask signals correlated noise, which can be
detected just like regular M/S detection, so we don't skip
noise bands, but when only one side uses PNS setting the flag
can confuse some encoders, so avoid that.

ca203e9985 AAC encoder: improve SF range utilization
This patch does 4 things, all of which interact and thus it
woudln't be possible to commit them separately without causing
either quality regressions or assertion failures.

Fate comparison targets don't all reflect improvements in
quality, yet listening tests show substantially improved quality
and stability.

1. Increase SF range utilization.

The spec requires SF delta values to be constrained within the
range -60..60. The previous code was applying that range to
the whole SF array and not only the deltas of consecutive values,
because doing so requires smarter code: zeroing or otherwise
skipping a band may invalidate lots of SF choices.

This patch implements that logic to allow the coders to utilize
the full dynamic range of scalefactors, increasing quality quite
considerably, and fixing delta-SF-related assertion failures,
since now the limitation is enforced rather than asserted.

2. PNS tweaks

The previous modification makes big improvements in twoloop's
efficiency, and every time that happens PNS logic needs to be
tweaked accordingly to avoid it from stepping all over twoloop's
decisions. This patch includes modifications of the sort.

3. Account for lowpass cutoff during PSY analysis

The closer PSY's allocation is to final allocation the better
the quality is, and given these modifications, twoloop is now
very efficient at avoiding holes. Thus, to compute accurate
thresholds, PSY needs to account for the lowpass applied
implicitly during twoloop (by zeroing high bands).

This patch makes twoloop set the cutoff in psymodel's context
the first time it runs, and makes PSY account for it during
threshold computation, making PE and threshold computations
closer to the final allocation and thus achieving better
subjective quality.

4. Tweaks to RC lambda tracking loop in relation to PNS

Without this tweak some corner cases cause quality regressions.
Basically, lambda needs to react faster to overall bitrate
efficiency changes since now PNS can be quite successful in
enforcing maximum bitrates, when PSY allocates too many bits
to the lower bands, suppressing the signals RC logic uses to
lower lambda in those cases and causing aggressive PNS.

This tweak makes PNS much less aggressive, though it can still
use some further tweaks.

Also update MIPS specializations and adjust fuzz

27d23ae074 aacenc: add support for encoding files using Long Term Prediction
Long Term Prediction allows for prediction of spectral coefficients
via the previously decoded time-dependent samples. This feature
works well with harmonic content 2 or more frames long, like speech,
human or non-human, piano music or any constant tones at very low
bitrates.

It should be noted that the current coder is highly efficient and
the rate control system is unable to encode files at extremely
low bitrates (less than 14kbps seems to be impossible) so this
extension isn't capable of optimum operation. Dramatic difference
is observable with some types of audio and speech but for the most
part the audiable differences are subtle. The spectrum looks better
however so the encoder is able to harvest the additional bits that
this feature provies, should the user choose to enable it. So
it's best to enable this feature only if encoding at the absolutely
lowest bitrate that the encoder is capable of.

01ecb7172b AAC encoder: Extensive improvements
This finalizes merging of the work in the patches in ticket .

Improvements to twoloop and RC logic are extensive.

The non-exhaustive list of twoloop improvments includes:
 - Tweaks to distortion limits on the RD optimization phase of twoloop
 - Deeper search in twoloop
 - PNS information marking to let twoloop decide when to use it
   (turned out having the decision made separately wasn't working)
 - Tonal band detection and priorization
 - Better band energy conservation rules
 - Strict hole avoidance

For rate control:
 - Use psymodel's bit allocation to allow proper use of the bit
   reservoir. Don't work against the bit reservoir by moving lambda
   in the opposite direction when psymodel decides to allocate more/less
   bits to a frame.
 - Retry the encode if the effective rate lies outside a reasonable
   margin of psymodel's allocation or the selected ABR.
 - Log average lambda at the end. Useful info for everyone, but especially
   for tuning of the various encoder constants that relate to lambda
   feedback.

Psy:
 - Do not apply lowpass with a FIR filter, instead just let the coder
   zero bands above the cutoff. The FIR filter induces group delay,
   and while zeroing bands causes ripple, it's lost in the quantization
   noise.
 - Experimental VBR bit allocation code
 - Tweak automatic lowpass filter threshold to maximize audio bandwidth
   at all bitrates while still providing acceptable, stable quality.

I/S:
 - Phase decision fixes. Unrelated to , but the bugs only surfaced
   when the merge was finalized. Measure I/S band energy accounting for
   phase, and prevent I/S and M/S from being applied both.

PNS:
 - Avoid marking short bands with PNS when they're part of a window
   group in which there's a large variation of energy from one window
   to the next. PNS can't preserve those and the effect is extremely
   noticeable.

M/S:
 - Implement BMLD protection similar to the specified in
   ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Since M/S decision
   doesn't conform to section 6.1, a different method had to be
   implemented, but should provide equivalent protection.
 - Move the decision logic closer to the method specified in
   ISO-IEC/13818:7-2003, Appendix C Section 6.1. Specifically,
   make sure M/S needs less bits than dual stereo.
 - Don't apply M/S in bands that are using I/S

Now, this of course needed adjustments in the compare targets and
fuzz factors of the AAC encoder's fate tests, but if wondering why
the targets go up (more distortion), consider the previous coder
was using too many bits on LF content (far more than required by
psy), and thus those signals will now be more distorted, not less.

The extra distortion isn't audible though, I carried extensive
ABX testing to make sure.

A very similar patch was also extensively tested by Kamendo2 in
the context of .

9458a62dec AAC encoder: tweak PNS usage to be more aggressive
This patch tweaks search_for_pns to be both more
aggressive and more careful when applying PNS. On
the one side, it will again try to use PNS on zero
(or effectively zero) bands. For this, both zeroes
and band_type have to be checked (some ZERO bands
aren't marked in zeroes). On the other side, a more
accurate rate-distortion measure avoids using PNS
where it would cause audible distortion.

Also fixed a small bug in the computation of freq
that caused PNS usage on low-frequency bands during
8-short windows. This allows re-enabling PNS during
8-short.

8df9bf8e39 AAC encoder: refactor to resynchronize MIPS port
This patch refactors the AAC coders to reuse code
between the MIPS port and the regular, portable C code.
There were two main functions that had to use
hand-optimized versions of quantization code:
 - search_for_quantizers_twoloop
 - codebook_trellis_rate

Those two were split into their own template header
files so they can be inlined inside both the MIPS port
and the generic code. In each context, they'll link
to their specialized implementations, and thus be
optimized by the compiler.

This approach I believe is better than maintaining
several copies of each function. As past experience has
proven, having to keep those in sync was error prone.
In this way, they will remain in sync by default.

Also, an implementation of the dequantized output
argument for the optimized quantize_and_encode
functions is included in the patch. While the current
implementation of search_for_pred still isn't using
it, future iterations of main prediction probably will.
It should not imply any measurable performance hit while
not being used.

da64bd6a99 aaccoder: tweak PNS implementation further
This commit changes a few things about the noise substitution
logic:
 - Brings back the quantization factor (reduced to 3) during
   scalefactor index calculations.
 - Rejects any zeroed bands. They should be inaudiable and it's
   a waste transmitting the scalefactor indices for these.
 - Uses swb_offsets instead of incrementing a 'start' with every
   window group size.
 - Rejects all PNS during short windows.
Overall improves quality. There was a plan to use the lfg system
to create the random numbers instead of using whatever the decoder
uses but for now this works fine. Entropy is far from important here.

b6cc8ec7ec aaccoder: add frequency scaling and quantization correction for PNS
This commit once again improves the PNS implementation by scaling the
thresholds with frequency. The thresholds get looser as the frequency
increases since higher frequencies are basically noise to human ears.

Also, this introduces quantization error correction for PNS. Should
the error be too much, no PNS will be used. The energy_ratio is used
to regulate the actual encoded PNS energy: if the generated PNS
energy is higher than the energy from the psy system, energy_ratio
is used to correct it so that hopefully once requantized and
transmitted the value in the decoder will be closer to what the
encoder has.

033e58941e aaccoder: rewrite PNS implementation
This commit rewrites the PNS implementation and significantly
improves sonic quality.

The previous implementation marked an incredibly big amount
of SFBs to predict when there was no need for this and this
resulted in quite a large amount of artifacts. Also the
quantization was incorrect (av_clip(4+log2f(...))) which
led to 3x the intensity for PNS values leading to even more
artifacts.

This commit rewrites the PNS search function and introduces
a major change: the PNS values are synthesized and are compared
to the current coefficients in addition to passing through
the revised checks to see whether PNS can be used.

This decreases distortions and makes the current PNS implementation
mainly focused on replacing any low-power non-zero bands as well
as adding any zeroed bands back.

The current encoder's performance is enough (especially with
IS) so PNS isn't really required except to fill in the occasional
few bands as well as extend any zeroed high frequency, so this
combination which is already enabled by default works
to get as much quality as it can within the bits allowed.

f20b67173c aacenc_tns: rework the way coefficients are calculated
This commit abandons the way the specifications state to
quantize the coefficients, makes use of the new LPC float
functions and is much better.

The original way of converting non-normalized float samples
to int32_t which out LPC system expects was wrong and it was
wrong to assume the coefficients that are generated are also
valid. It was essentially a full garbage-in, garbage-out
system and it definitely shows when looking at spectrals
and listening. The high frequencies were very overattenuated.
The new LPC function performs the analysis directly.

The specifications state to quantize the coefficients into
four bit index values using an asin() function which of course
had to have ugly ternary operators because the function turns
negative if the coefficients are negative which when encoding
causes invalid bitstream to get generated.

This deviates from this by using the direct TNS tables, which
are fairly small since you only have 4 bits at most for index
values. The LPC values are directly quantized against the tables
and are then used to perform filtering after the requantization,
which simply fetches the array values.

The end result is that TNS works much better now and doesn't
attenuate anything but the actual signal, e.g. TNS removes
quantization errors and does it's job correctly now.

It might be enabled by default soon since it doesn't hurt and
helps reduce nastyness at low bitrates.

44ddee945a aacenc_pred: rework the way prediction is done
This commit completely alters the algorithm of prediction.
The original commit which introduced prediction was completely
incorrect to even remotely care about what the actual coefficients
contain or whether any options were enabled. Not my actual fault.

This commit treats prediction the way the decoder does and expects
to do: like lossy encryption. Everything related to prediction now
happens at the very end but just before quantization and encoding
of coefficients. On the decoder side, prediction happens before
anything has had a chance to even access the coefficients.

Also the original implementation had problems because it actually
touched the band_type of special bands which already had their
scalefactor indices marked and it's a wonder the asserion wasn't
triggered when transmitting those.

Overall, this now drastically increases audio quality and you should
think about enabling it if you don't plan on playing anything encoded
on really old low power ultra-embedded devices since they might not
support decoding of prediction or AAC-Main. Though the specifications
were written ages ago and as times change so do the FLOPS.

76b81b10d9 aacenc: implement the complete AAC-Main profile
This commit finalizes AAC-Main profile encoding support
by implementing all mandatory and optional tools available

The AAC-Main profile reqires that prediction support be

for an encoder to be deemed capable of AAC-Main encoding,
as well as TNS, PNS and IS, all of which were implemented
with previous commits or earlier of this year.

Users are encouraged to test the new functionality using either

a1c487e921 aacenc_tns: implement temporal noise shaping
This commit implements temporal noise shaping support in the
encoder, along with an -aac_tns option to toggle it on or off
(off by default for now). TNS will increase audio quality
and reduce quantization noise by applying a multitap FIR filter
across allowed coefficients and transmit side information to the
decoder so it could create an inverse filter.

Users are encouraged to test the new functionality by enabling
-aac_tns 1 during encoding.

No major bugs are observable at this time so after a while if no
new problems appear and if the current implementation is deemed
of high enough quality and stability it will be enabled by default,
possibly at the same time the encoder has its experimental flag
removed and becomes the standard aac encoder in ffmpeg.

This commit moves the resetting of special bands (above RESERVED_BT)
to the main frame encoding function rather than the way it was done
previously in their corresponding search_for_... functions.

The reason why special bands need to be reset is that while normal
bands get chosen for every frame by the coder (twoloop by default)
the coders do not touch any special sfbs and will therefore
make them persist throughout the file.

If we zero them out any bands left unmarked will be chosen by
the second part of the coder (the trellis function in aaccoder.c).

ef8e5a61c8 aacenc: Move small misc. functions to a separate file
As well as tables littered everywhere, functions were spread
out all across the encoder's files. This moves them to a single
place where they can be used by either the encoder's main files
or additional encoder files. Additionally, it changes the type
of some to 'inline' to enable us to simply put them in a header
file and possibly gain some speed due to compiler optimizations.

c47c781e83 aacenc: Move local encoder specific tables to a separate file
This commit moves any tables specific to the encoder from aacenc
and aaccoder to a separate file called 'aacenctab.c/.h'.
This was done as a clean up attempt as the encoder was filled with
tables pasted in between functions which made it confusing to follow
and track where each table and definition had been used.
This commit solves this by simply exporting the smaller tables out to
the aacenctab.h while the larger ones are compiled using aacenctab.c
and are referenced from the header file.

6d175158e9 aacenc: remove redundant argument from coder functions
This commit removes a redundant argument from the functions in aaccoder.
The argument lambda was redundant as it was just a copy of s->lambda,
to which all functions have access to anyway. This cleans up the function
pointers a bit which is helpful as there are a lot of other search_for_*
functions under development and with them populated it gets messy.

59216e0525 AAC Encoder: clipping avoidance
Avoid clipping due to quantization noise to produce audible
artifacts, by detecting near-clipping signals and both attenuating
them a little and encoding escape-encoded bands (usually the
loudest) rounding towards zero instead of nearest, which tends to
decrease overall energy and thus clipping.

Currently fate tests measure numerical error so this change makes
tests using asynth (which are near clipping) report higher error
not less, because of window attenuation. Yet, they sound better,
not worse (albeit subtle, other samples aren't subtle at all).
Only measuring psychoacoustically weighted error would make for
a representative test, so that will be left for a future patch.

331c1e7494 aacenc: move the generation of ff_aac_pow34sf_tab[]
This commit moves the generation of ff_aac_pow34sf_tab[] out of the
encoder and into the table generator. The original commit log for
this table in 2011 actually mentions that it should be moved outside
but this never happened.

This is the first commit which cleans up the encoder a little.

e8576dc8df aacenc: implement Intensity Stereo encoding support
This commit implements intensity stereo coding support
to the native aac encoder. This is a way to increase the efficiency
of the encoder by zeroing the right channel's spectral coefficients
(in a channel pair) and rederiving them in the decoder using information
from the scalefactor indices of special band types. This commit
confomrs to the official ISO 13818-7 specifications, although due to
their ambiguity certain deviations have been taken to ensure maximum
sound quality. This commit has been extensively tested and has shown
to not result in audiable audio artifacts unless in extreme cases.
This commit also adds an option, aac_is, which has the value of
0 by default. Intensity Stereo is part of the scalable aac profile
and is thus non-default.

The way IS coding works is that it rederives the right channel's
spectral coefficients from the left channel via the scalefactor
index values left in the right channel. Since an entire band's
spectral coefficients do not need to be coded, the encoder's
efficiency jumps up and it unzeroes some high frequency values
which it previously did not have enough bits to encode. That way
less information is lost than the information lost by rederiving
the spectral coefficients with some error. This is why the
filesize of files encoded with IS do not decrease significantly.
Users wishing that IS coding should reduce filesize are expected
to reduce their encoding bitrates appropriately.

This is V2 of the commit. The old version did not mark ms_mask as
0 since M/S and IS coding are incompactible, which resulted in
distortions with M/S coding enabled. This version also improves
phase detection by measuring it for every spectral coefficient in
the band and using a simple majority rule to determine whether the
coefficients are in or out of phase. Also, the energy values per
spectral coefficient were changed as to reflect the
official specifications.

38fd4c2e66 aaccoder: add a new perceptual noise substitution implementation
This commit finalizes the PNS implementation previously added to the encoder
by moving it to a seperate function search_for_pns() and thus making it
coder-generic. This new implementation makes use of the spread field of
the psy bands and the lambda quality feedback paremeter. The spread of the
spectrum in a band prevents PNS from being used excessively and thus preserve
more phase information in high frequencies.  The lambda parameter allows
the number of PNS-marked bands to vary based on the lambda parameter and the
amount of bits available, making better choices on which bands are to be marked
as noise. Comparisons with the previous PNS implementation can be found
here: https://trac.ffmpeg.org/attachment/wiki/Encode/AAC/

This is V2 of the patch, the changes from the previous version being that this
version uses the new band->spread metric from aacpsy and normalizes the
energy using the group size. These changes were suggested by Claudio Freire
on the mailing list. Another change is the use of lambda to alter the
frequency threshold. This change makes the actual threshold frequencies
vary between +-2Khz of what's specified, depending on frame encoding performance.

This commit enables the function added with commit 7c10b87 and uses that
new function for setting any special scalefactor indices. This commit does
not change the behaviour of the encoder since no bands are being marked as
either NOISE_BT(due to the previous PNS implementation removed in the
previous commit) or INTENSITY_BT2/INTENSITY_BT.

57848ef3c6 aaccoder: fix M/S coding
There were some mistakes in the code for M/S stereo, this commit fixes them.
The start variable was not being reset for every window and every access to
the coefficients was incorrect as well. This fixes that by properly
addressing the coefficients using both windows and setting the start on every window to zero.

This commit adds support for the coding of intensity stereo scalefactor indices.
It does not do any marking of such bands and as such does no functional changes
to the encoder. It removes any old twoloop specific code for PNS and moves it
into a seperate function which handles setting of scalefactor indices for
PNS and IS bands.
