Is it OK to use the "playback" name in "playback-native" #1

Open Ivshti opened 9 years ago

Ivshti commented 9 years ago

I am planning an experiment - replicating the playback player with WebChimera.js and native UI controls through trueinteractions/tint2.

The benefit is that when frames are rendered, they will get passed to OpenGL / D3D directly in the same process, rather than passing around through Chromium's abstractions (a minimum of one additional memcpy), resulting in a player which is almost as energy efficient as QuickTime.

Is it OK to name it "playback-native" or something similar?

Yea! As long as you link it here when you have something working. On Fri 31 Jul 2015 at 15:25 Ivo Georgiev notifications@github.com wrote:

I made some progress a while back

Now it plays video as efficiently as VLC, only under Mac, but this is a proof of concept of WebChimera.js without any of the WebGL / Chromium overhead.
