Ok, yes it is a bit confusing. Thank you for helping clarify.
In fact, when I started building OE, asking for clarification of OE issues, the response from that list was, "Beginners should use Yocto." Indeed it's helpful that yocto/poky are cleanly organized and well-documented. OE seems to have many more subtle nuances.
> And I think you mean poky, not yocto.
Well now, this appears to have been debated at length. If 'poky' is preferred here, I'm happy to use it. Do note, though, that /etc/issue proudly proclaims that I am running "Yocto (built by poky)". And in order to download the denzil release from yoctoproject.org, one clicks on a link entitled, "Yocto Project". So try not to be too hard on people who think they are running Yocto on their hardware. The boundaries of Yocto and Poky are not clear and obvious.
> Ah,
your intimate knowledge of libav reveals itself! Libav has no specific
A9 optimizations, only NEON ones, so your insinuation is not based on
actual facts.
Yes, it's true. I'm hopeful to achieve a running video player in this environment without intimate knowledge of libav. To my view, that's the nice thing of Linux as opposed to running bare metal: there's a wealth of software available. It should be possible to assemble a working system without intimate knowledge of every component.
Plus, every time we post to a list, we get a few more helpful nuggets :)
