And according to the wikipedia article the PS3 has only a geforce 7x00
series graphics chip, so you couldnt offload to that for playback with
vdpau.

"Based on NV47 Chip (Nvidia GeForce 7800 Architecture)"

So it would have to be a highly parallel software video decoder
written for the SPEs.


My analysis (from a non-C developer and limited understanding) as most
of this software is (I am guessing) written in C and this (can be) a
language where you have to handle memory directly, this would be a
large re-write of the ffmpeg code.
