I will give my test cases later, and I will add a ci option on this skip. As I 
was very busy on workdays, sorry for late.

bigger than non-split cost


 
Ximing - thanks for your contribution!

 

Pradeep - This early decision optimization certainly looks like it has good 
potential to be a smart tradeoff for intermediate presets (like medium).   
Sure, the test was only for 2 seconds of video, but for this test case we see a 
10% performance gain with no loss of quality... so that??s very promising.  
You??re right;  more testing is needed to fully understand the cost/benefit 
under a wide range of conditions.  Can we ask one of our engineers to run some 
tests?  

 

I also think we need to take the lead when it comes to naming CLI options and 
parameters.  Maybe --splitrdskip?

 

Thanks,

Tom

Thanks for your test data. Looks like this is an intra-only optimization. Could 
you please share more results with longer test sequences at different 
resolutions, if you have them? We can also run additional tests before 
considering this improvement if the results are more wide-spread.


 


Also, please add a new param field and cli option that may be used to exercise 
this. It is always better to do this instead of affect default encodes with 
such performance optimizations. They param should be off by default, and if we 
can clearly see the benefits to all possible encodes for a given preset, then 
we can consider enabling that optimization for that given preset.

intra: skip RD analysis when sum of sub CU split cost bigger than non-split cost
This patch will speed up all intra case with almost no BDRATE loss
