This CL changes the API for webrtc::VideoEncoder. There is a legacy method called SetRates(). This is indicated as being deprecated, but there seem to be a number of usages still left. Then there is the new SetRateAllocation() method which takes a VideoBitrateAllocation instance instead of a single target bitrate. This CL adds a new version of SetRates() which moves all the existing parameters in a RateControlParameters struct, and adds a bandwidth allocation signal. The intent of this signal is to allow the encoder to know how close to the target it needs to stay. If the encoder rate is network restricted, it will need to be more aggressive in keep the rate down and possibly drop frames. If there is some margin for overshoot, it might do different trade-offs. Furthermore, the frame rate signal is changes from an integer to a floating point type in order to get more precise rates at low frame rates and the return type has been changed to void since the only use of the previous values to log it and that is better done inside encoder where the error condition originates. The intent is to properly deprecate the "old" SetRates() / SetRateAllocation() methods, send out a PSA and then remove them in two weeks. Changes required by users should be trivial, as using the new headroom signal is optional.

WebRTC is a free, open software project that provides browsers and mobile applications with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple APIs. The WebRTC components have been optimized to best serve this purpose.
Our mission: To enable rich, high-quality RTC applications to be developed for the browser, mobile platforms, and IoT devices, and allow them all to communicate via a common set of protocols.
The WebRTC initiative is a project supported by Google, Mozilla and Opera, amongst others.
Development
