I hope that DSP accelerated codec is exported to gstreamer plugin also, so Theora+Vorbis would be the choice for local saved videos also.

How nice will that be though, running iplayer at a silky smooth 30fps, and being able to watch a higher resolution youtube.
Things are going to be VERY interesting when 4g is launched, with average download rate of 100mb! Just imagine the potentials, crystal clear video calls, running numerous wireless media apps with no slowdown. Be interesting to see what type of tarrif the mobile operators bring out.... Cant see o2 offering me the "unlimited" (500mb) download limit then... lol

One clarification to the people on this thread: This is specifically for Ogg Theora videos using HTML5. Flash will not run faster and HTML5 videos using h.264 will not play at all. That said, nice to see theora videos working well in firefox mobile.

good to see that theora is getting hardware support.
hopefully this means that theora can be the chosen format for html 5. this way we don't have to worry about flash slowing down our system

Matthew Gregan is employed by Mozilla and is currently working on improving video and audio support in Firefox.On his blog, Matthew Gregan reports that there has been some success in shifting the major part of the processing load caused by decoding Theora videos into the DSP (Digital Signal Processor) core of Texas Instruments' OMAP 3 processor.
Using Nokia's N900 Linux smartphone for the tests, Matthew Gregan was able to play full-screen videos at 800x480 pixels and a rate of more than 30 frames per second. The colour-space conversion and painting was offloaded to the OMAP 3's graphics core, and video decoding to the DSP, which left the CPU core as good as idle. The remaining processor load only amounted to 20%, with the PulseAudio driver for sound output alone causing a load of 10% to 15%.
