Description Jae Stutzman (reporter) 2007-02-08 06:01:27 UTC

Please add support for these codecs in the packaged firmware, preferably
dsp-accelerated, although arm is ok too for now. These are very standard codecs
in the OSS world. Support for these codecs are sorely missed in the media player.

See: Bug 176 for history on 770 (this bug is for the N800)

Enhancement requests usually go WONTFIX to prevent bugzilla pollution.

Comment 2 timeless 2007-02-15 07:07:04 UTC

actually there used to be keywords (enhancement-it2005, enhancement-it2006).

Agreed. It is disheartening to find Ogg-Vorbis not supported on a Linux-based
platform.

This really needs to be sorted. Its a show stopper for myself for many of the
things I want to do with the N800. I imagine I'm not the only person that feels
this way.

At the very least, release the info needed for the community to develop DSP
accelerated codecs.

Bug 176 is for 770, not N800.

See http://bugs.maemo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=176#c29 for a reasoning why it is
better to have this as a duplicate and keep the discussion in a single bug
report.

> Bug 176 is for 770, not N800. 

Now is marked for N800.
