[FFmpeg-devel] [RFC] H.264 filter_mb_fast()

Hi

The current filter_mb_fast() in our decoder is buggy, it is a optimized
special case of filter_mb() which had known and documented bugs.

Iam planing to remove filter_mb_fast() and all code that becomes unused
through that.
I already considered that yesterday but then decided to fix the bug
i found yesterday in it. Now as more issues turn up i dont think its
worth the effort. filter_mb() itself is in need of cleanup and there are
many obvious optimizations that can be done in it.

The question this boils down to is:
Is there someone who is willing to cleanup filter_mb_fast() and fix the
bugs in it [this needs some x86 asm knowledge] ?
If not then i will remove it in the next days.
