Well, at least probably not that particular patent (set?). And it's spesifically h.264 by the way. > Due to it being a high-resolution phone, and assuming that we'll watch > video on it anyway, there should be efforts towards implementing > this! This is not probably called for at this point, Neo1973 pretty certainly does _not_ have enough horsepower to play back h.264. (I'm hoping to play _some_ kind of video back on the device myself, but experimenting if that'll be feasible for any kind of non-horrible quality will have to wait till release, unless somebody in the inner circle does some test on their *cough* copious spare time. ;) Anyway, ffmpeg has a h.264 decoder and the x264 project can encode it, so the copyright-wise free code is out there already, for the future. -- Mikko Rauhala - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - <URL:http://www.iki.fi/mjr/> Transhumanist - WTA member - <URL:http://www.transhumanism.org/> Singularitarian - SIAI supporter - <URL:http://www.singinst.org/> _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list [email protected] https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
