I don't really see any advantage of adding intrinsics to FFMpeg so I'm against it. Standardizing the x86 assembly in one "language" is preferable for multiple reasons, especially since yasm/nasm + x86inc is more powerful/flexible (better macro support etc.) than using intrinsics. If you know how to write intrinsics it shouldn't be that much of a learning curve to become familiar with yasm/nasm + x86inc either, and you can always drop by on IRC to ask questions. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
