What kind of acceleration are you talking about ? In the beginning there was only OpenGL, which you just said is crap. More recently, XV acceleration was added, and then removed. That attempt seemed to be renderer-agnostic (it would have scaled final rendered stage to output size). I've no point here, just trying to understand the new architecture. > We now have a new renderer, OpenVG > (with OpenGLES as a future task), that can use the GPU for both double > buffering, image transformations, hardware gradient support, and video > decoding.

So all acceleration is in a new renderer. > The current double buffering code was AGG specific, whereas the task > is to refactor this so it also works with hardware based double > buffering, initially OpenVG. Can we get the old code for FB/AGG now and something else whenever you want for FB/OpenVG then ? --strk; () Free GIS & Flash consultant/developer /\ http://strk.keybit.net/services.html _______________________________________________ Gnash-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnash-dev
