Yes, it's possible ... SDL is able to use XVideo, which is the XServer's
extension to scale in hardware - talk with the SDL guys to see how it
works, you have to feed it with the separate YUV-buffers, I think ... our
mjpeg_tools at mjpeg.sf.net, and the program lavplay (with  software
playback) contain some example code (but it is maybe buried long
down there ;) )
