Not even in the backports repository? Afaik that's how Debian 7 ships SDL 2.0.0. > its supported till 2017-04-26 That is also more or less the date when Debian 7 will be EOLed, so it's a good time to fully drop SDL1 support. > > should we keep old ffplay as a ffplay-sdl1 until then ? I'm fine with that if others are (Especially Marton and Josh, since they develop/maintain ffplay). It's a good compromise. But much like ffserver it should similarly be marked as deprecated and essentially unmaintained somewhere. _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org http://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel
