yes, it would be best in C. also you would be working in the ffmpeg
code. hopefully all that needs to be done is to write a demuxer. there
is some small information about it here:
http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=FFmpeg_demuxer_howto

but its better to just read some other video game demuxers in
ffmpeg/libavformat/ source.

you can read up on vp3 here:
http://wiki.multimedia.cx/index.php?title=VP3
http://multimedia.cx/vp3-format.txt

or in the sourcecode in ffmpeg/libavcodec/vp3.c
