As I've said several times, progress is not possible (or requires lots of wasted energy) if we don't drop obsolete APIs. And at this point, the new vdpau API is definitely superior over the old one. I don't know why anyone would want to use the old API. > I simply don't understand what the advantage is of > removing a few lines of code. That's not a few lines, that's over 600 lines. To make it worse, it's all duplicated code, duplicating functionality the vdpau hwaccel provides. Unlike the hwaccel code, it's not cleanly integrated either. Just look how intrusive it is, while hwaccel is basically just a bunch of callbacks in the right places (and works for multiple hwdec APIs, not just vdpau). _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
