[MPlayer-users] h.264 decoding and thread-level parallelism

[Ulrich]

Hi Igor,


for me, using "-lavdopts threads=2" works for most of the h.264-streams
broadcasted on BBC.

This is really a nice feature, because without it, my system would be to
slow to do the real-time-decoding.

Of course, given the amount of multi-core-cpus out there today, and the
increasing number of MPEG-4-HDTV-channels, it would also be very nice if
it worked on every h.264-stream or file there is.

(or a working, improved XvMC implementation / graphics hardware
acceleration for MPEG-4)

But we can still dream..
