Media

• Just landed support for hardware decoding (a.k.a. platform decoders) on Android ICS/JB: Bug 782508.

  GB support should be following in another week or so. Playback performance on ICS/JB currently is ok, but not stellar. Once we add GB support, we will work to improve the performance. This patch should work across all Android hardware phones running ICS/JB -- however, some hardware implementations are known to have bugs, which we will need to work around. If you try this code on your ICS/JB device and it doesn't work, please file a bug.

Stability Report

• stability@mozilla.org mailing list for crash issues.

Socorro

• Rapid beta work should release around the week of Sept 10th

Desktop

• New Flash release - 11.4 out today
  • Hoping it addresses further issues.
  • Marcia/Juan verifying symbols uploaded and we are receiving crash data.

• Hangs
  • Tracking issues with hangs for some time.
  • bsmedberg wrote up Socorro/Hang Processing Proposal for a better way to process hangs.
  • Socorro team says we can have this mid-Q4. bsmedberg is thinking about custom handling of hang reports from nightly/aurora/(beta?) until then to produce useful data, bypassing socorro.

• Trunk
  • High crash rate
  • Top crash on the trunk resolved fixed then reopened - bug 781265.
  • bug 782981 now fixed but poluting the stats.

Mobile

• Top crash on mobile bug 776334 fixed and uplifted to beta.
