- dralley 8y agoBeing a decoder, they probably place a high priority on having the widest possible platform support. C is still top dog in that respect.
- w-m 8y agoI'm curious, what kind of platforms do you have in mind, that a) can be targeted by C, but not by Rust b) provide enough performance to make porting a next-gen video decoder a worthwhile exercise?
- ncmncm 8y agoThousands of special-purpose, minimally-featured, embedded systems. You don't notice them because they are invisible, and they are invisible because they "just work". For high-enough volume products they have a decoder chip or section of a gate array, but most are low-volume and can barely afford the ROM for the code.
