[Ffmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Chinese AVS video decoder

[Stefan Gehrer]

Hi,

new patch versus current SVN attached, hopefully addressing
all outstanding points.

avoiding the first copy could be done by deblocking the whole frame after
decoding, but I think the H.264 code was changed the other way round
for good reason.

For the second copying: The advantage is that the mess is concentrated
in load_intra*, while all the intra prediction functions are only a few
lines and very readable. I did actually try to make these decisions about
neighbouring pixels in the prediction functions themselves at one point, 
but after a few functions I didn't like the look of it. Sure, there is
a price on performance, but I think that stuff is not the most critical.

Done, with one change: Making those put/avg_pixels* functions in
dsputil.c non-static and prefixed with ff_ seemed to turn into quite an
intrusive patch, instead I moved four stub functions (the *_mc00 stuff)
from cavsdsp.c to dsputil.c

I would like to maintain it, even though my response times might not be the
best.
