Hello, I was wondering if there is a plan to add support for crystalhd hardware decoder in mplayer? The software stack (GPL2) is available from http://www.broadcom.com/support/crystal_hd/ (be warned, the Linux sources need to be dos2unix'ed first!). The kernel module seems to build on modern distributions. I believe XBMC guys have it working quite well. Since the code is GPL2, I'd say it's miles better than the proprietary VDPAU we're forced to deal with by means of the nvidia driver.
