Hello, I am wondering if support of coreAVC for linux will be supported.

Since the project have been approved from CoreAVC codec.

I know that coreAVC is not free, but who isn't willing to pay 8$ to have 720p or 1080p playback without frames drop?

I followed the excellent progress by picard/betaboy/etc since it spawned on the pda, and couldn't have been less interested (for a few very silly, nonsensical reasons) since they started their commercial site.

I am not interested in running coreavc on linux or any pc platform. I would rather spend extra money on cpu horsepower now (assuming I needed it) and/or patiently waiting for the fantastic oss alternatives to 'catch up'.

Once it works in ffmpeg, it'll work in XBMC. Note-- not mplayer, ffmpeg.

Yeah that went away within a day. The corecodec guys realized they were walking into a beehive.

At the moment I'm led to believe that there's no other faster decoding solution available for h264 material.

I purchased it and I'm currently using it with Zoom Player, but seeing the fast progress on XBMC makes me wonder, as I used to be a loyal XBMC user.

I was actually impressed by CoreAVC's handling of the situation. They clearly had an overzealous lawyer who got out of control, but the company backpeddled, apologized, and set up controls to prevent the mistake from happening again. That's a remarkably mature way of handling things; usually companies have a phobia of admitting they were wrong.

I'll cheerfully spend the $8 once it's supported by ffmpeg.
