I attempted to use it but got much better results using AGG. I believe that it should be classified as experimental, like the Cairo renderer is. > So, as I don't know many flash-enabled sites, I will be happy to > listen for your opinions on 0.8.1 vs 0.8.2. graphics/gnash-devel > port with recent CVS snapshot will be added without question, so > given that graphics/gnash may be left at 0.8.1 for now if upgrade > to 0.8.2 brings less than it takes. Both 0.8.2 and devel versions successfully render videos of some sites where 0.8.1 failed when I tested. This one, for example: http://charges.uol.com.br/ I noticed that video rendering lags behind audio with 0.8.2 and devel. It seems that video rendering with AGG is not fast enough, so I will try to improve the performance by trimming some compilation parameters. -- Carlos A. M. dos Santos
