[theora-codecs] VP3 playback problems

[Mauricio Piacentini]

John, sorry for the confusion. I was talking about this post from Youri
Pepplinkhuizen

<p>What I mentioned is that this build of the codec (done in November/02) does
not contain changes/bug fixes/optimizations that can be incorporated into
the cvs tree, according to the original Japanese developer. Hope this is
clearer.

<p>> Hm well a memory leak seems fixed.

<p>My experience shows that a lot of time is spent writing pixels to the
screen, not decompressing the frames, so video drivers really make a
difference when it comes to playing fullscreen video in any format. I can
play 800X600 24fps video on a PIII - 550Mhz with only occasional glitches,
but using 95% of the cpu.

<p><p>Regards,

Mauricio
