[Gnash-dev] Is SDL needed for libmad or ffmpeg? And what about GTK and renderers?

[Jeremy C. Reed]

(I would have asked this on the gnash list but the link in the README goes 
to webpage that says "No such list gnash.").

The README says GTK (GtkGlExt) and FLTK2 are alternatives to SDL. And 
suggests GTK version is better due to full event handling.

But it looks like default media mad or ffmpeg still use SDL. Why use GTK 
and SDL? Does adding SDL with GTK cause: "The SDL version has no event 
handling, which means mouse clicks and keys pressed get ignored. Also the 
windows don't resize, and occasionally they overrun their boundaries." ??

Also README says cairo is an renderer option. But later it says it is 
required when using GTK. So are opengl and agg only options when not using 
GTK?
