Re: [Gnash-dev] broadcom crystal hd support

[Jacob Beard]

I just tried Gnash with the crystalhd driver disabled. It still fails, 
but does so in a different way. With crystalhd turned on, the first one 
or two frames would be displayed, and then the whole UI would turn 
black, and the audio would cut off. Now, no frames are displayed (the 
video never plays), but the audio plays somewhat choppily the whole way 
through. Also, with crystalhd turned off, a popup window is now 
displayed consistently when attempting to load the video which says 
"VideoDecoderGst: initialisation failed", whereas with crystalhd turned 
on, I think this popup would only be displayed intermittently (I think 
it only happened once). Console output with crystalhd turned off is as 
follows:

ERROR: Too many attempts to read from the player!
DtsGetHWFeatures: Create File Failed
DtsGetHWFeatures: Create File Failed
Running DIL (3.21.0) Version
DtsDeviceOpen: Opening HW in mode 0
DtsDeviceOpen: Create File Failed

Megavideo manifests similar behaviour. Vimeo fails to render at all.

Let me know what you think. Thanks,

Jake
