Help needed with small ffmpeg patch

**alanwww1** · 2011-11-21 09:17

Hi all !

I'd like to introduce a small patch which backports two important changes in libavcodec/vaapi_vc1.c , that fixes vc1 playback on Intel Sandy Bridge GPUs with VAAPI.

Just a small quastion: Do I just need to only copy the patch to lib/ffmpeg/patch as 0061-Some_patchname.patch ? Will that be applied in configure time or in make time ? Or should I also apply the patch to the particular file ?

Sorry but i was not able to figure out how these patches get applied.

Thanks for the help !

Cheers, Alan

the directory is just for keeping track, we apply the patches to the in-tree source. shouldn't be needed for a pure backport, unless it combines several upstream changes into one.

Never mind i did have a patch but it was for ffplay and needs to be patched in libffmpeg itself first.
