AV1 encode & decode build issue

[Selur]

I do added the --psnr into my command line, it will only output the average PSNR at the end of encoding without per frame PSNR.

Since you you asked for the 'overall PSNR performance' I assumed that is what you are looking for.

Looking at the command line aomenc options:

I don't see an option for a frame by frame PSNR comparision, so you probably have to do that by yourself somehow.
