5 - the entropy coder, replace static huffman
6 - clean up the pnsr tools
7 - write docs and do some performance analysis, compare to other codecs
8 - think about a multiresolution multidimensional motion flow detection scheme,
9 Marco posted a good paper comparing different algorithms to do this
12 Open bugs and stuff required to fix them:
14 - wavelet xform bug at short rows, see workaround in wavelet_xform.c
15 - (4,x) and (x,4) wavelet implementations have a bug which causes round-off
16 errors in the two least significand bits
19 Wavelet-related TODO's:
21 - remove unecessairy copying in inverse xform
22 - improve truncation table setup
23 - try other approaches to encode coefficients, jack was talking about VQ
25 - write avitotarkin/quicktimetotarkin/mpegtotarkin/player/recorder
26 (a libsndfile/libaudiofile/libao alike video library would be great !)
28 - add special transform functions for large strides to prevent cache misses
29 - mmx/3dnow/sse/altivec
34 - u and v buffers could get quarter size already at color conversion
35 this would speed up the whole algorithm; perhaps this should get
37 - fast internal 16bitY/U/V->15/16bitRGB for display could make sense
38 - the wavelet codec could be used for still image compression too
39 (we just have to define a file format with all goodies you can imagine;)
40 - to make it perfect someone has to write a good bilevel compressor and
41 mask seperation algorithm
