Really peeps, face it, seems that the sane way to do non-crappy video on

straws makes OM bump up the priority a bit (though again, for now there
are certainly more important things to do).
Is mpeg-4 decoding in the Glamo chip only video? Or could we use it to
decode audio as well to decrease CPU-time, thereby having more
batterytime for playing mpeg4 audio?
Video only.
It would be lovely if it did audio too, and you could feed it a
scatter-gather list of blocks from the SD to play - but no.
So we've got to decode the audio in the CPU, and feed the extracted
video stream from the file read by the CPU to the video chip.
(neglecting the fact that tehre are no drivers)
