I think the branding issue would solve itself in short order if the actual implementation of swscale started to be good. My concern with adding a new library is that we'd end up in a situation where we have both swscale and a new library side by side for some extended period of time. By comparison adding cleaner APIs to swscale and then slowly strangling the old APIs (along the lines of Niklas' proposal) would allow for a more gradual transition that has a higher likelihood of success compared to a full rewrite IMO. - Cosmin _______________________________________________ ffmpeg-devel mailing list ffmpeg-devel@ffmpeg.org https://ffmpeg.org/mailman/listinfo/ffmpeg-devel To unsubscribe, visit link above, or email ffmpeg-devel-request@ffmpeg.org with subject "unsubscribe".
