By the way, is this because the CLE266 does not have APIs for
MC and IDCT, or because there is no motivation to support it ?

In the former case, it might be possible to implement an
adaptation layer which receives IDCT coefficients and motion
vectors from the application, encodes them into a slice
bitstream, and feeds that to the chip.

Of course this is only useful if there are other codecs than
MPEG1/2 which can take advantage of MC and IDCT acceleration.
