[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 1/5] libavcodec: Implementation of 32 bit fixed point FFT

[Zeljko Lukac]

Hi Mike,

Yes, that is correct. 

Rockbox FFT has accuracy of ~ 25 bits (25.4 ).
Our FFT with the same multiplication as Rockbox FFT has accuracy of ~ 25 bits (25.6).
Our original FFT has accuracy of ~ 28 bits (27.9).

We think that we get can get similar speed performance of our original and modified FFT for optimized code. If for some application less accurate FFT variant is needed both can be provided.

Best regards,
Zeljko
