tremor is faster than libvorbis and slower than ffvorbis. The next snapshot won't provide tremor at all. I'm sorry, could you be a bit clearer on this? What do you mean by "The next snapshot won't provide tremor at all"? Will upstream remove tremor? It doesn't seem so on the mplayer-dev-eng mailing list, there seems to be a certain amount of uncertainty about that. Or do you mean that the Gentoo ebuild maintainer(s) will disable internal tremor like I suggested above? In the latter case, will libvorbis be selectable through the USE flag "vorbis"? I wouldn't like being forced to use ffvorbis (which is build with or without "vorbis" in USE). Regards Sebastian The possibilities are: - update tremor internal copy in mplayer-> good for arm and other fpu-less cpus - provide a snapshot for tremor in gentoo once it will be removed from mplayer-> a pain for me - leave ffvorbis as the only solution -> it has the best performance on floating point cpus. In none of them libvorbis appears because: - has lesser performance than the other solutions - mplayer doesn't encode in vorbis (yet) - is an external dependency Thanks for clearing that up. |
