Hi all,

If VLC's h264 encoder uses x264, what about the h264 decoder does it also use the x264 library?

thank you in advance for taking time to answer my question.

Usage of x264 _decoding_ library is not necessary, as I know. X264 produces H264 compliant data stream and any H264 decoder must understand it.

Thanks for the help Greendq.
