And some of the features they are implementing are already used on the kde desktop interface. so how do you think they are implementing flac and mkv support. You do know that some years ago Microsoft brought into opensuse. Why do you think they done that? http://news.slashdot.org/story/14/11/27/1347217/windows-10-to-feature-native-support-for-mkv-and-flac?utm_source=rss1.0mainlinkanon&utm_medium=feed |
