Greetings.
The VfW GUI limits the number of threads to 4
(xvidcore/vfw/src/config.c, line 1478), but the core library has no such
limitation. I know that the vertical resolution of the input effectively
limits the number of threads that can be used, but is there a reason for
hardcoding the limit in VfW to just 4? SysKin once warned about using
"way too many" threads. Can >4 be too many for the algorithm to handle
(can it cause crashes etc.)?
Best regards,
Marcin Jaworski
