Currently libvpx 1.3.0 is implemented in ffmpeg. Version 1.4.0 of libvpx
was released and should now be implemented into ffmpeg. The new version
has significant improvements to VP9:
* Fixes a VP9 bitstream issue in Profile 1. This only affects non-YUV
4:2:0 files.
* Significant algorithmic improvements to VP9 encoding, support for YUV
4:2:2 and 4:4:4 colorspaces as well as high bit depth (10 and 12 bit).
* More functions are now optimized for VP9 encoding and decoding.
* VP9 encodes are faster with multithreaded encoding on by default.
* VP9 decoder now has two multithreaded modes: tile based and frame based.
The encoder now enables these by default to help ensure your encoded
content will be able to take advantage of these modes.
* 64bit support for ARM thanks to intrinsics instead of ARM assembly.
The new version announcement along with the download link can be found
here (bullets copied from here).
