Layer priority is the ultimate decider of what recipe is used: if layer A has recipe foo_1 and layer B has recipe foo_2, if layer A's priority is higher than B then foo_1 will be used, even though the version in B is higher, and even if PREFERRED_VERSION_foo is set to 2. This complicates recipes moving between layers, for example when a newer version of a recipe (say, python3-wheel) is taken from a layer with a higher priority (say, meta-python) and moved to a layer with a lower priority (say, oe-core) then it has to be removed before it is added: there is no way to have it in both layers and work correctly. Higher priorities are useful in distribution layers where you may want to override specific recipes without any other fuss. However as all of the layers in meta-oe simply add more recipes in defined areas, there's no need to have a higher layer priority.

Send pull requests to openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org with '[meta-multimedia]' in the subject
When sending single patches, please use something like: git send-email -M -1 --to openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org --subject-prefix='meta-multimedia][PATCH'
You are encouraged to fork the mirror on github https://github.com/openembedded/meta-openembedded to share your patches, this is preferred for patch sets consisting of more than one patch. Other services like GitLab, repo.or.cz or self hosted setups are of course accepted as well, 'git fetch ' works the same on all of them. We recommend github because it is free, easy to use, has been proven to be reliable and has a really good web GUI.
