Sure, I want ed to get the change in libavcodec, but they really want it as a 
filter rather than a decoder. I think that would then cause problems in Myth 
(correct me if I'm wrong) and then we'd need another re-sync, which takes 
quite a long time from past experience.

I thought we could at least get it in and working, then perhaps re-jig it as a 
filter and change Myth to support the libfilter framework and contribute the 
filter back to ffmpeg.
