MediaCodec is an official library that enables hardware decoding. If both are selected, only MediaCodec is used. I guess the only advantage/disadvantage of MediaCodec would be in how well the device manufacturer implemented it. For example, on the OUYA, MediaCodec is great with h.264 but sucks with MPEG4 (XVID/DIVX).(2014-06-06, 10:49)Apothis Wrote: Yes, it was removed from the wiki because its no longer accurate. a few people have reported issues with a few individual encodes, but generally speaking (an specifically for myself) its working fine. I have it turned on, and dont have any problems at all with 1080p high bitrate encodes (or anything else)
Whats the difference between libstagefright and mediacodec ?
someone wrote that only one of them will work no matter what the settings says ?
does one have any advantage over the other one ?
why is both on as default if only 1 of them will work ?
