This is an attempt to complete Robert Rudd's GSOC project of 2008 with XBMC. ./ffmpeg was checked out from: http://xbmc.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/xbmc/branches/gsoc-2008-rudd/sources/dvdplayer/ffmpeg Build using: cd ffmpeg ./configure --extra-libs="-lGLEW -lglut" --disable-ffmpeg --disable-ffplay --disable-ffserver cd gpu/ make You can then run gpu_player using one of the mkv test files e.g. ./gpu_player ../../Ganges.E01.1080p.L4.1.mkv ffmpeg-orig is a version of ffmpeg back when Rudd started out(XBMC svn @r13975). This is where I am doing my own work at the moment (in the branch called "work").
