Description
Would it be possible to have a client able to use the hardware decoding of the raspberry pi ?
It should be possible to use the omxplayer for that.

In fact it might be better to use openmax :

or MMAL
I would love to try, but for now I really don't know were to start.

Just a question,
Why use gstreamer for audio decoding and not for video ?
Because seems to me that it would permit to have hardware decoding, even on the rpi with gst-omx...

Audio is a stream that never stops so gstreamer is a good fit.
Screen updates are not always video, starting and stopping gstreamer pipelines for this would be too expensive - just not a good fit.

It should be possible, but since the code has not been used in any other projects but omxplayer, that's unlikely to happen unless someone submits some code.
