FWIW, I wrote all the VIS routines for IDCT, motion compensation,
and yuv2rgb conversions for libmpeg2. I'm working with the libmpeg2
maintainer to integrate my work.
The IDCT part needs a little more work but otherwise it's %100
complete (and yes much faster than Sun's crap in mlib :)
Once I have all of this work done I'll make an effort to create a
patch for mplayer-1.0preX and maybe even try to figure out that
color problem (reds and blues are reversed in every pixel which
points to some kind of endianness bug). However I encourage
Antonello to still file the bug in the mplayer bug area so that
they know about it.
