Worth a try but I see two (potential) problems:

* is it hardware accelerated? it says it uses ffmpeg in the backend and that, 
to me, sounds like it's not using the OMX interface for hardware accelerated 
video on the pi
* it requires jack, this means you're increasing overhead by running the jack 
server
