Crystal HD

Hello,

I was wondering if there are any plans to add support for crystalhd
hardware decoder in ffmpeg?

The software stack (GPL2) is available from
http://www.broadcom.com/support/crystal_hd/ (the Linux
sources need to be dos2unix'ed first!). The kernel module seems to
build on modern distributions. XBMC have it working quite well.

Questioning the mplayer guys, they suggested that it would be much better to 
incorporate it into ffmpeg, so it triples down to VLC and mplayer and any 
other app that makes use of ffmpeg.

Regards,

Michael
