So answer is that most likely there will never be any extra codecs to stock player, since nobody has ever said that codecs are missing from the player.

Afaik all 480p base profile and lower resolution videos are playing quite fine on the device. And if your dreaming of playing 1080p & 720p & 480p mid/ high profile videos downloaded from your favourite torrent site, then you are eating some mushrooms that you shouldn't. As that is as likely as that you would be able to run Symbian applications in Android.
There's a co. that has a specialised CODEC for the SoC the N9 uses.
I can't recall their name & the URL OTTOMH....
They claim it will enable 720p, think it was only base profile.
I mentioned them in the appropriate report in the bug-tracker ages ago.
But so far none of the Nokia devs have responded.
