[PATCH] [media] coda: disable BWB only while decoding on CODA 960

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Disabling the BWB works around hangups observed while decoding. Since no
issues have been observed while encoding, and disabling BWB also reduces
encoding performance, reenable it for encoding.
