Seems a similar thing to VDPAU under linux.

Does mplayer make use of this API ?

No, patch welcome.

If somebody wants to spend significant time on this:
It might be better to implement VideoToolBox instead, see:

Hi guys,

Still waiting for response on audio limiter/compressor plugins. Are there any?

You need to stop replying to other peoples threads when posting new
topics, stop top-posting, and maybe then people will be more inclined
to respond - certainly more people will see your question if it
appears as a new thread with a pertinent subject line.

Cheers

FFmpeg has already added the decoder, called "vda" late last year.
It is still not supported by mplayer currently.
I would like to contribute and test, but I don't know where to start.

Unfortunately as for all hardware decoding (except crystalhd) the part
that FFmpeg contains is only a tiny part of what is required.
The video out part that is needed must be implemented in MPlayer and
nobody is interested enough in making even helper functions for that
available in FFmpeg to actually do so.
