The memcpy function written in assembly was integrated in
xine's sources. I didn't test the function that Albert wrote
due to lack of time (and I didn't submit it for integration --
perhaps another person did in the meantime).
Unfortunately, I am finishing my Master's degree and have
little time now for learning assembly. I hope that other
people here also take the time to improve xine with some
assembly routines for PPCs.
The road is long, but with us helping each other, the trip
will be much more enjoyable. :-)
