Hi, Based on my very limited and incomplete understanding of these technologies, I believe the Crystal API is an API for accelerated video content for the Broadcom Crystal HD chipset. You're starting to see this chip show up in a lot of netbooks. Broadcom has released open source drivers, an application library, and a gstreamer plugin, most of which seem to have made it into Ubuntu Maverick.
I know Gnash now supports VAAPI, and it also seems as though someone is working on a backend for the crystal API for VAAPI, which but it seems not be very mature: http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/vaapi It would therefore be interesting if Gnash could make use of the crystal API in some other way, perhaps via Gstreamer and the crystal plugin. Let me know what you think.
