As for the encoder, it is far more complex than the decoder. Reasonable to wrapper other libraries just like libx264 and libx265... I'm all for improving the internal decoder, and I agree that the internal decoder should be preferred and be used by default, but it's not clear why that should preclude adding an external decoder as an option. Adding a disabled-by-default decoder is adding bloat, if there is not a specific known reason why that is needed. This is especially true for video decoders, where the external decoders typically will have no or worse optimisations for DSP functions, no thread support (or not accessible via libavcodec), Is this an actual problem with vvdec? To me it seems like a reasonably optimized decoder with support for threading, etc. and no integration with hwaccel. The later point has become a problem even with dav1d... hwaccel decoding seems somewhat orthogonal Sometimes bugs are found in the internal decoders Providing a non-default choice is a poor excuse for a bug. Most users won't know how to do that, need better documentation? and many FFmpeg reverse dependencies don't even allow it. not sure that designing for the lowest common denominator of reverse dependencies is the best way to do things, but at a minimum one can rebuild ffmpeg with only one decoder enabled to get around this or some functionality may be missing, and having the option to fallback to an external decoder as a workaround is very useful in practice. That I can agree, but what do you find missing in the VVC decoder compared to libvvcdec? _______________________________________________ This I'm not sure, perhaps there is no feature gap? Does the internal VVC decoder supports all features of the Main10 profile? - Cosmin _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-requ...@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
