Well, vp8 encoding is not presented as feature in any datasheets, if the hardware do really supports is another matter. > > Anyway, between just deleting the sources from my dev machine, I > decided to place in a git rep, just in case it is useful to someone > else! Sorry for being the asshole, but i can not stay silent. If nobody speaks, in just a few months everything will be forgotten, and the technical-clueless-user will think that the license-issues are resolved and no more an issue. Sorry to say, but this is only useful to whitewashing and make believe that is acceptable to use the proprietary-binary-blobs-with-random-license-issues, in a community that claims to be an open-source community. And that is why, i will reply to whoever who forgets to clearly recognize that license-issues exist. Because the same error committed 3 years ago, should not be repeated again. 3 years ago, was when for the first time was discovered the amount of the license-violations in the cedarx-library, but as we(the linux-sunxi community) wished to have a positive relation will Allwinner, we let this information out of public knowledge. Because we preferred to work with Allwinner that to go bother and scare way with this license-issues. And the work that was happen at that same time, had demonstrated the feasibility of the video-engine-reversing-engineering-effort. And to go bother Allwinner with license-issues that nobody likes to be involved would not bring any benefit. But, what happened, everyone already knows. The reversing-engineering-effort was ignored, and instead it was expected from the linux-sunxi community to accepted the proprietary-binary-blobs-with-random-license-issues, and in this conditions nobody that claims to be part of an open-source-community should be indifferent and stay silent. And that is why, i speak. -- Manuel Braga > > No hard feelings! > > R > On Saturday, May 21, 2016 at 3:25:33 PM UTC-5, Stefan Monnier wrote: > > > > > I have added "V4l2" sources to the CedarX encoder demo. > > > This is basically the "Camera" sources from AW demo that was > > > around for A20... > > > > IOW a complete waste of time. > > I'd encourage you instead to work with the Cedrus library, which > > has the philosophical/ethical advantage of being Free Software, and > > the technical advantages of not being a dead-end black-box. > > > > > > Stefan > > > > > -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "linux-sunxi" group.
