This means we don't need to implement all the HTML5 compliance logic twice, saving us a lot of work.Chris Pearcehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735147508549619230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537325711190185140.post-27399152419551290412010-05-29T13:59:37.995+12:002010-05-29T13:59:37.995+12:00regarding these improvements in Ogg Theora support...regarding these improvements in Ogg Theora support, what is the situation in Firefox WebM builds ?

This is because we need to run the video through our HTML rendering pipeline which currently isn't accelerated. Stand alone players like VLC don't have to worry about that, and can use hardware acceleration, and so will use less CPU. We're working on getting hardware acceleration into Firefox.Chris Pearcehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13735147508549619230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537325711190185140.post-62097088309137013282010-04-03T09:43:22.440+13:002010-04-03T09:43:22.440+13:00Not sure i used the right nightly (Gecko/20100402)...Not sure i used the right nightly (Gecko/20100402) but when i compare this nighly, a old nightly from January and Vlc media player, i notice vlc needs 5x less CPU then Firefox. The 2 nightly's i compare used equal CPU.<br /><br />Will firefox get closer to this performance in the future? And what is the reason for a big difference like this?Dorushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12483812513221326255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537325711190185140.post-85553826974611099402010-04-03T03:09:05.729+13:002010-04-03T03:09:05.729+13:00watching the big buck bunny ogg video today and th...watching the big buck bunny ogg video today and the sound doesn't skip anymore.
