VA-API in Audience/elementary?

 

Hey guys, I was just reading about hardware acceleration support in MPlayer
and was wondering if anyone knew anything about it.

It'd be sweet to get hardware acceleration for video in Audience to
significantly reduce memory usage on some graphics chipsets. Unless I'm
totally mistaken and Audience already supports this, what would it take to
get this in it by default?
