Happy to see you still on this list Baptiste :)

My point is that both of us and the other few people in the free
software scene who care about MXF should focus our attention on bmx.

A similar argument can be made for j2k which I've been working on
lately. While the improvements I have made for the lavc decoder make it
considerably faster, it's still only about half as fast as openjpeg.
The effort currently being spent by the student implementing htj2k
support in our decoder might be better spent merging openjpeg and
implementing codeblock level multithreading like I have done for lavc's
j2k decoder..
