yes, that's the problem with such approach, but on that platform it's the only option, really, you don't have much cpu power. > What about the vlc backend?

AFAIR it calls back from thread, which is not allowed in EFL, but people spotted different problems as well. Also, vlc is not an option on that platform, gstreamer is the "official" media player and uses dsp for audio decoding, but mplayer is was optimized by a guy and is the best, it does this framebuffer tricky and also have an ARM JIT compiler for scale. -- Gustavo Sverzut Barbieri http://profusion.mobi embedded systems -------------------------------------- MSN: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Skype: gsbarbieri Mobile: +55 (19) 9225-2202 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ enlightenment-devel mailing list enlightenment-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/enlightenment-devel
