Ну вот, и до версии 5.1 дожили. Интересно, как скоро появятся 5.1.1 и т.д. с исправлением свеженьких багов & глюков?

Version 5.1 (released 2003-09-02 )

New:

- Added a new high-quality psychovisual mode that includes the following features:
-- Texture cortex masking and rate distortion algorithm
-- Hybrid mode (with texture cortex masking)
-- Speed optimization
-- Chroma operation (this option is not enabled by default for performance reasons; to enable it, create an empty file in C:\ called "DivxPvShapingChroma.txt" for "fast" mode and "DivxPvSimpleChroma.txt" for slow mode; testing shows only 1-2% gains in JND tests)
- The decoder has been rearchitected and is now 10 to 30% faster on all CPU platforms.
- The decoder now supports automatic post-processing during video playback.
- Added new features to the rate control modes of the encoder, including:
-- A complexity vector log file
-- An API that allows real-time control of rate control
-- An API that allows forced I-frame insertion

Improved:

- Redesigned encoder GUI. The new GUI is more accessible and simplifies overall usage.
- DivX 3 compatibility. (There were no problems detected on any of the more than 60 hours of test content.)
- Performance of Nth Pass strategy planning performance.

Fixed:

- A bug that caused the quantizer to overshoot the bitrate following a transition to a complex scene.
- A bug that limited the interframe change in quantizer to the ideal quantizer or plus or minus 2.
- A bug in RGB32 to YUV conversion on Pentium 4 machines.
- A minor bug that affected multiple CPU configuration.
- A bug with the rate control video buffer verifier (VBV) that would enforce a "3 sec" max bitrate.
- Several bugs that affected Nth Pass encoding strategy planning.
- A bug that caused a different number of frames to be reported between different passes in VirtualDub.
- A bug that caused motion vector (MV) reuse to be non-functional.
- A bug that caused problems when MV reuse and psychovisual mode were used together.
- Several bugs with the installer.
- A bug that caused a crash when setting crop/resize values.
