Sorry I just have no real time to look at it. The issue I have with that
kind of "complex" algorithms is that they usually are implemented in a
way that has pathological case where it would become completely unusable
while only providing a marginal speedup over simpler algorithms.
Which is the reason for the algorithm in vo_gl.
Of course I do not like it that with this code we would have two
different allocation algorithms, but it is impossible to freely choose
between them.
Or in short: without very good reasons why it would be too hard, there
should only be a single code for this allocation algorithm and both gl
and vdpau should use it.
