[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v4 0/2] 32bps FLAC patches

[Martijn van Beurden]

Recently libFLAC gained the ability (not in any released version yet
though) to create FLAC files containing 32-bit int PCM samples. To
keep complexity reasonable, the choice was made to limit residuals
to 32-bit integers, which the encoder must make sure of. In case
the encoder cannot find any predictor of which the residuals fit
this limit, it must default to using a verbatim subframe. Tests have
shown that this does not happen often (<0.1% of subframes on a
music corpus of various styles). See also discussion here:
https://github.com/ietf-wg-cellar/flac-specification/pull/148

These two patches implement decoding and encoding following this
format.

Changes since v1:
fix copy-paste error in encoder, several invocations of
lpc_encode_choose_datapath used wrong parameters, making FATE fail as
compression was less than it should be

Changes since v2:
Rebased decoder part as it didn't apply anymore

Changes since v3:
Moved put_golomb part to flacenc.c (as it is now quite specific to FLAC)
and renamed put_sbits64 to put_sbits63 (and changed assert accordingly)
