Configuring libmad with --enable-speed compromises accuracy and can cause audio
clipping in some cases (heard on ARM platform with some loud MP3s), so give
users the choice of MAD optimizations.

The default config corresponds to the default behavior of libmad's configure.

Note that, if applicable, the options are always passed with either '--enable-'
or '--disable-' to be more robust than a simple omission, since this can avoid a
mismatch in config options if the package version is changed and its new default
configure options are different.

Changes for v2:
   - Factorize the 'able' in the $(if ).

Hello,

I prefer the solution in v1 with regard to this, as it is much easier
to read.

What about calling those options:

 BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMAD_OPTIMIZATION_SPEED
 BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMAD_OPTIMIZATION_ACCURACY
 BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMAD_OPTIMIZATION_DEFAULT

> +config BR2_PACKAGE_LIBMAD_SPEED_ACCURACY
> +	bool "Optimize for both speed and accuracy"

This should rather be:

	bool "Default"

or something like that. Technically, this option does not enable any
special optimization for both speed and accuracy, it just uses the
default options.

Thanks,

Thomas

As you prefer.

Actually, libmad's README says that the default options (neither --enable-speed
nor --enable-accuracy) imply an optimization of both:

"Note that you need not specify one of --enable-speed or --enable-accuracy; in
its default configuration, MAD is optimized for both."

But it refuses to configure with both options, and there is indeed technically
nothing special done by default.

I'll post a v3 doing all that.

Regards,
Benoît
