Hi Waider, Thank you for your patch. I wouldn't worry too much about resubmitting the patch at this point. As you noticed, all the other patches submitted around the same time failed in the same way, so the failure isn't evidence of a breakage in your changes. If a reviewer has is concerned your changes may break something, they could run FATE themselves or request you resubmit the patch at that point. It doesn't look as though your patch touches anything arch-specific, so I think if FATE passes on AArch64, then there's a good change it will also pass on x86_64. All the best, Frank _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
