Hi Robin,

Yes, complaining very loudly may help... :)

Not that i'm implying this also but this case may also been related to
something else in your system. I would suggest if you test some bits like:

- if any acceleration like medialib got acidentaly disabled from 0.9.6
to 0.9.7.

- if any way to profile code is available as we do under x86 (using rtsc
values) you may try to play the same video and pay attention to the
results. although not very precise this may give some idea of what
part of stream decoding/play got slower.

- send console logs (including those pts messages) for both versions
playing the same stream.


regards,

Miguel
