Feb 28, 2023, 10:41 by dev@lynne.ee: > Wrote the release notes for 6.0, containing an > explanation of the new releases/ABI bump details, > and an overview of what has changed. > > Patch attached. > Corrected a spelling mistake, more specifically stated which release is an LTS release, and a minor adjustments: A new major release, <a href="download.html#release_6.0">FFmpeg 6.0 "Von Neumann"</a>, is now available for download. This release has many new encoders and decoders, filters, ffmpeg CLI tool improvements, and also, changes the way releases are done. All major releases will now bump the version of the ABI. We plan to have a new major release each year. Another release-specific change is that deprecated APIs will be removed after 3 releases, upon the next major bump. The last minor release of a major version will be an LTS release. This means that releases will be done more often and will be more organized. New decoders featured are Bonk, RKA, Radiance, SC-4, APAC, VQC, WavArc and a few ADPCM formats. QSV and NVenc now support AV1 encoding. The FFmpeg CLI (we usually reffer to it as ffmpeg.c to avoid confusion) has speed-up improvements due to threading, as well as statistics options, and the ability to pass option values for filters from a file. There are quite a few new audio and video filters, such as adrc, showcwt, backgroundkey and ssim360, with a few hardware ones too. Finally, the release features many behind-the-scenes changes, including a new FFT and MDCT implementation used in codecs, numerous bugfixes, better ICC profile handling and colorspace signalling improvement, introduction of a number of RISC-V vector and scalar assembly optimized routines, and a few new improved APIs, which can be viewed in the doc/APIchanges file in our tree. A few submitted features, such as the Vulkan improvements and more FFT optimizations will be in the next minor release, 6.1, which we plan to release soon, in line with our new release schedule. Some highlights are:

For some reason LTS releases were only planned for every second year: https://ftp.belnet.be/mirror/FOSDEM/video/2023/K.3.401/om_vlc.webm#t=724 So I'd remove the last sentence until this is clarified.
