wavpack: updated to 5.8.0
5.8.0
Much of the development for this release stemmed from the discovery of situations where the quantization noise introduced with the hybrid mode was higher than expected, in particular with very low bitrates (e.g., < 3 bps) and high sample rates. This was traced to feedback in the decorrelation loop and has been addressed. Also, audio samples were discovered where the DNS (dynamic noise shaping) algorithm produced sub-optimal shaping, and this has been addressed with an all-new DNS algorithm. Finally, some issues were fixed that caused the "extra" mode performance to degrade with multithreading and also with the hybrid mode.
The other major change is that multithreading is now turned on by default for the command-line programs, assuming that a multicore CPU is detected. This can be disabled with a new option --no-threads.
