Hi, Thanks for the quick reply. The changes are based upon ver 0.7.2. Yes, the plugin doesn't fork or exec stand-alone player.

When you say a multi-threaded plugin, you mean it doesn't fork & exec the standalone player ? Anyway, the way to proceed would be to post a patch to our savannah site, https://savannah.gnu.org/patch/?group=gnash so we can look over the changes. For any of this work to be incorporated into Gnash your company will also have to assign the copyright to the FSF, as Gnash is an official GNU project. > Please note that we have not added DirectFB as separate native rendering > backend to GNASH. Hum... ideally it would need to be a backend, but if fit works under GtkDFB, I guess that's ok too. - rob - The information contained in this electronic message and any attachments to this message are intended for the exclusive use of the addressee(s) and may contain proprietary, confidential or privileged information.
