no. Gem can use a variety of backends to decode a video, using it's own plugin system. libquicktime is among them. libgmerlin is among them. others are as well... > > i was wondering, how difficult it would be to add stable support for the > hap-codec in Gem. maybe even bypassing libquicktime/ffmpeg alltogether? just write a filmHAP plugin :-) the main problem is see is that the output of [pix_film] is a *pix*, that is a decoded image in main memory. i *guess* that HAP would benefit from leaving the image on the GPU memory and just making it available as a texture. unfortunately the "film" plugin architecture doesn't allow this. there has been a proposal for a "texture source" plugin, but it hasn't got much attention from my side. > > has anyone looked into it yet? no. fgmas IOhannes
