Dirac 1.0.2 released

[`Orum]

While I still think it may be a little early to do a real comparison between x264 and a Dirac encoder, I think that when one is done, they should use "real" encoding settings. If the defaults are used in the test, and never in real world encoding, what does that prove other than you shouldn't use the default settings? The harder part will be determining exactly what is fair settings balance between such wildly different codecs...

The harder part will be determining exactly what is fair settings balance between such wildly different codecs...IMO the fairest thing to do is just max encoding settings quality-wise. Dirac is not meant to be fast (that's Schroedinger's job), and even then neither is nearly as speed-optimized as x264, so it would be unfair to try to compare them with same-speed settings.

I'm encoding some video with ffmpeg2dirac 0.1.0 on quad core

Average CPU usage is 30% . I think the encoder is not multi-threaded / efficient enough to use all CPU.
Secondly, it doesn't support .avs file

Any idea when is the features will implemented?

Last time I heard, the research version is better in term of quality. Any truth in this?
