I think the approach that was discussed for FFmpeg was to only compile the faster variant. I has quite a few issues, but in principle only compiling in tremor support would select it. It would also work the other way round (and probably better), make tremor the default but only compile it in on FPU-less systems. In the case of MPlayer there may be some issues with that, e.g. the native ogg demuxer behaviour might change. Of course the best solution would have been if tremor hadn't been developed as a completely different library but instead was just a different configuration of libvorbis... _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list pkg-multimedia-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
