Although, with the recent build system change, I'm not even sure we can still automatically build a < 13 version without backporting Jenkins stuff...
OK to help me understand where this threads development life cycle is at. Is the above post stating all of the libstagefright work is a dead end and dies with version 12? I had always been under the assumption that if successful, this work would be incorporated into the baseline xbmc code base? Don't misunderstand i truly appreciate all of the hard work over the past several months but if h/w acceleration for android devices will not be supported going forward, team-xbmc needs to look at enabling support for launching other video players to perform playback and streaming in android. Otherwise I would think xbmc for android will die without ongoing hw accelerated playback support or is there some other approach the team foresees as meeting user video performance needs on the android platform?
