Michael Niedermayer c3f5b81125 Merge remote branch 'qatar/master'
* qatar/master:
  ALPHA: Replace sized int_fast integer types with plain int/unsigned.
Duplicate  DPX image encoder
Duplicate  DPX decoder: read sample aspect ratio
Duplciate  DPX decoder: add buffer size checks.
  ac3enc: clip large coefficient values and negative exponents rather than using av_assert2().
  ac3enc: do not store a bandwidth code for each channel.
  ac3enc: remove bandwidth reduction as fallback for bit allocation failure.
  ac3enc: merge compute_exp_strategy_ch() into compute_exp_strategy()
  ac3enc: return error if frame+exponent bits are too large instead of using av_assert2().
  ac3enc: differentiate between current block and reference block in bit_alloc()
  ac3enc: simplify exponent_init() by calculating exponent_group_tab[] based on exponent group sizes.
  ac3enc: simplify stereo rematrixing decision options
Include both URLs:  Update URL to fate samples

FATE Automated Testing Environment
FATE provides a regression testsuite that can be run locally or configured
to send reports to fate.ffmpeg.org.
In order to run, it needs a large amount of data (samples and references)
that is provided separately from the actual source distribution.
Use the following command to get the fate test samples
# rsync -aL rsync://rsync.mplayerhq.hu:/samples/fate-suite/ fate/fate-suite
# rsync -aL rsync://fate-suite.libav.org:/fate-suite/ fate-suite
To inform the build system about the testsuite location, pass
`--samples=<path to the samples>` to configure or set the SAMPLES Make
variable or the FATE_SAMPLES environment variable to a suitable value.
For information on how to set up FATE to send results to the official FFmpeg
testing framework, please refer to the following wiki page:
http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=FATE
FATE Makefile targets:
fate-list
Will list all fate/regression test targets.
fate
Run the FATE test suite (requires the fate-suite dataset).
Fate Makefile variables:
V
Verbosity level, can be set to 0, 1 or 2.
* 0: show just the test arguments
* 1: show just the command used in the test
* 2: show everything
SAMPLES
Specify or override the path to the FATE samples at make time, it has a
meaning only while running the regression tests.
THREADS
Specify how many threads to use while running regression tests, it is
quite useful to detect thread-related regressions.
Example:
make V=1 SAMPLES=/var/fate/samples THREADS=2 fate
