Ah, that's a real shame. It would have been the perfect board
otherwise.<br>

pandora hardware, which is slightly older OMAP, but similar
design. The problem is that those video decoding claims are
true if using the DSP hardware. In our case the DSP could be
used, but you would also have to license the codec code to
decode.<br>
So while they may say its possible, in reality its not because
there isnt a codec to use. This is the case with the pandora.<br>

This may not be true for the Gumstix Overo board though. It is a 600
Mhz OMAP3, and it allows for use of the TI DSP code through a
download of a proprietary blob. There's lots of traffic over on the
gumstix site about using gstreamer and mplayer with HW decoding.
And, while it's a bit old, there is also a mythfrontend build
target.<br>
<br>
Caution, I've never tried to use it for this. I have no idea how
likely it would be that you could easily port the Myth code to
decode using the TI DSP, as I'm fairly certain that capability does
not exist in the base Myth repository.<br>
