For the record, OpenHEVC is actually based on libavcodec, and
implements a HEVC decoder on top of this.
Its still very much a work in progress, which is why its not being
merged into ffmpeg or libav yet.

Give it some time to mature, i've heard some comments that the
developers hope to get it integrated into mainline ffmpeg/libav this
summer, once all the major features are implemented and its in a state
worth merging.
