yes.  and, during later iterations, do some more.

well, ultimately, gstreamer has an ffmpeg plugin, ffmpeg has a gstreamer
plugin, vdpau has a vaa plugin, vaa has a vdpau plugin, it's all circular [1]
and up its own backside [2], so whichever we pick is good :)

which route would be easiest for you, do let's go with that.

[1] yes i managed to install both vdpau and vaa recursively, once, whoops...
[2] the beatles "yellow submarine" film demonstrates this well
