[meta-freescale] [meta-fsl-arm][PATCH 1/3] pulseaudio: Customize pulseaudio configuration for i.MX platforms

[Lauren Post]

Otavio,

We build two images for testing, one is without ffmpeg.   That is what our prebuilts have. Second image is internal only is one with ffmpeg (we use it to test license restricted component combinations like chromium).  Both images use same pulse audio configuration.

So pulseaudio can be configured with a pulse audio ffmpeg block that works with and without ffmpeg.  It does not require ffmpeg to work.

So to answer your question, pulse audio works with this configuration without having ffmpeg in the image.

(oops, send button too soon) ... works in case the system does not have ffmpeg support? Does it uses a fallback mechanism? This needs testing.
