+Movit 1.6.0, January 24th, 2018
+
+ - Support for effects that work as compute shaders. Compute shaders are
+ generally slower than fragment shaders for the same algorithm,
+ but allow some forms of communication between shader invocations
+ and have more flexible output, which can enable more efficient algorithms.
+ See effect.h for more details. Note that the fastest rendering API on
+ EffectChain is now to a texture if possible, not to an FBO. This will
+ only matter if the last effect is a compute shader.
+
+ - Movit now includes a compute shader implementation of DeinterlaceEffect,
+ which is automatically used instead of the fragment shader implementation
+ if your GPU and OpenGL driver supports it (in practice, this means on
+ all platforms except on macOS). The compute shader version is typically
+ 20–80% faster than the fragment shader version, depending on your GPU
+ and other factors.
+
+ A compute shader implementation of ResampleEffect was written but
+ ultimately failed to be faster, and so is not included.
+
+ - Support for microbenchmarks of effects through the Google microbenchmarking
+ framework (optional). Currently, DeinterlaceEffect and ResampleEffect has
+ benchmarks; enable them by running the unit test with --benchmark (also try
+ --benchmark --help).
+
+ - Effects can now explicitly request _not_ to have mipmaps, which means they
+ can do so without needing to request bounce and fiddling with the sampler
+ state. Note that this is an API change for effects.
+
+ - Movit now requires C++11, both to build and to #include the header files.
+ Support for SDL1 has been dropped; unit tests and the demo program now need
+ SDL2.
+
+ - Various smaller bugfixes and optimizations.
