I had a brief look at doing this. The ffmpeg side of things isn't a 
problem, but DirectFB seemed more problematic. I have an nVidia card and 
reading between the lines I don't think it is going to perform well with 
DirectFB. I don't think I'm going to get any hardware acceleration at all. 
When I bought the nVidia card I didn't realise nVidia made life so 
difficult for Linux people.

I suppose I should really go and ask the DirectFB group about this to be
sure (not another mailing list I'm going to have to subscribe to!). Also
do you know if ffmpeg uses any hardware assist with the MPEG decoding?
Otherwise, things could be pretty awful indeed.

James.
