similar to: FLAC and autoconf

I've released FLAC 0.6. The big improvements are: - encoding speed in default mode (-6) is at least 3x faster - a new "loose mid-side" adaptive algorithm should help -1 and -5 modes - a new analyze mode for developers - a autoconf/libtool-based build system (thanks to Matt Zimmerman) - bug fixes related to pipes Check the new comparison page. FLAC has the best ratios of any open

OK, after some debugging, it turns out this is related to an earlier bug (#131976 which has a temporary workaround). In other words, it will not trigger unless you are encoding more than 2 channels, and only then at large blocksizes (>32k samples). The full fix will be in 0.8 Josh --- Josh Coalson <xflac@yahoo.com> wrote: > A bug fix in 0.7 created another bug related to >

No. Had no idea I had to. I've gleaned from someone else's message that I should be doing

I am trying to set up a flexible infrastructure for the assembly code. Basically what I want is configure.in determination of basic machine type (intel/compatible, alpha, ppc), then within that (say intel) the code will detect variants like MMX, SSE, and use the right routines. I know how to do the second, but what is a good way to do the first? Linux/Cygwin/Solaris seem to support the MACHTYPE

Hi. I want to add some code to flac and am having trouble building it out of cvs. I've had several problems, most of which were pretty easy to work around or had already been discussed here. But this one has me stumped (though I am admittedly new to autoconf, automake, and libtool). Here's the problem. autoconf does not see any definition for AC_PROG_LIBTOOL. There is such a

I have checked in all the latest into CVS and am going to start the test suite again. if all goes well I will probably release this as beta 10. this one should have all the configure stuff working with the new assembly infrastructure. I have tried to make it as easy as possible to port routines to assembly. all that's really needed now is to write the corresponding routine for a specific
