For the same reason we didn't add this to vicodec, we should probably keep
decoding and encoding separate. An stateless encoder stub would need to produce
some valid stream, I'm not sure how we should address this. So yes, we maybe
want to call is visldec.

Nicolas

p.s. do we need to define the pronunciation for that? "Vi SL dec" or "Vizel Dec"
?
