Well, it seems - o'k.
I'm not sure - but what about having a support of hardware accelerated
decoding? (I mean such things as mpeg1, mpeg2 decoding, de-zigzag and so on)
Unfortunatelly I never saw any opensource project which has implementation
of such things but if you know how it should be implemented then such extensions
are gladly accepted too.

Best regards! Nick
