Hi,

Nick: can I remove libavcodec from mplayer CVS? does it still have something interesting code, or all things are poretd to ffmpeg CVS?

I don't know - Gerard did not accepted my code which allowed function inlining and have replaced it with double function's pointer. Instead he have performed some C-level optimization. He wants to run 386 optimized ffmpeg on non-MMX (and non-FPU) Intel cpus.

What about ffmpeg support? I think it could be added for ffmpeg cvs version, like: #ifdef USE_FASTMEMCPY #include "../libvo/fastmemcpy.h" #endif

or so.

USE_FASTMEMCPY is already defined in mplayer's config.h

I'm not sure that this code will live longer a several hours in ffmpeg-CVS :(

did you check divx4linux? it's much faster, but i can't imagine how. After purchasing a new video hardware - I forgot, what is non real-time playback. Thus codec's speed is interested for me only from theoretical point now.

i think that DLL codecs are optimized enough, but it's 2 times faster in some cases! also, ffmpeg codec is usually faster than DLL, so maybe DLLs aren't so good as they said.

AFAIK divx32c has enough aggressive MMX(1,2) optimized code so it's a little strange for me - maybe you should test a several movies?

btw divx4 is still buggy, while ffmpeg plays everything. and it's opensource, and portable, while divx4 is linux/windows only :(

Undoubtedly - mplayer must have ffmpeg stuff in any form since it's only solution for non Intel machines. Best regards!
