Hello, I wanted to let the professional people of this list know that I have released a new version 0.1.5 of the NHW Project.
I have added very high compression (-l9 and -l10 quality settings).With -l10 setting, we're notably entering very high compression, and the NHW Project has still a very good neatness, and I still find it visually more pleasant than x265 (HEVC).The NHW Project is also still a lot faster to encode/decode than x265 (optimized HEVC), and the new entropy coding schemes are still not totally optimal for now (I have the fast ideas to improve them), and so we can save 2KB-2.5KB per .nhw compressed file. This is a constant, with this new version 0.1.5, the NHW Project has a good neatness/image quality from high quality (-h3 setting) to very high compression (-l10 setting).I have also released for this new version, a NHW neatness metrics, that measures neatness of image, and that shows that the NHW Project has more neatness than x265 (HEVC) for example. More at: http://nhwcodec.blogspot.com/ . Also I am looking to turn the NHW Project into a full video codec in order to submit to the Alliance for Open Media, MPEG new video coding standard,... but it lacks to my codec the inter-frame mechanism.Would some of the companies on this list be interested to add an inter-frame engine to the NHW Project to make a new very competitive video codec (high efficiency/quality, royalty-free, very fast)? Many thanks! Best regards, Raphael Canut
