[HTC EVO 3D] mingolianbeef:
Also, here is the code within the media codecs xml, take a look and see if i need to tweak somethibg to make it work for our phones...

There's a simple and a complex syntax to declare the availability of a

media codec:

A codec that properly follows the OpenMax spec and therefore doesn't have any

quirks and that only supports a single content type can be declared like so:

<MediaCodec name="OMX.foo.bar" type="something/interesting" />

If a codec has quirks OR supports multiple content types, the following syntax

can be used:

<MediaCodec name="OMX.foo.bar" >

<Type name="something/interesting" />

<Type name="something/else" />

...

<Quirk name="requires-allocate-on-input-ports" />

<Quirk name="requires-allocate-on-output-ports" />

<Quirk name="output-buffers-are-unreadable" />

</MediaCodec>

Only the three quirks included above are recognized at this point:

"requires-allocate-on-input-ports"

must be advertised if the component does not properly support specification

of input buffers using the OMX_UseBuffer(...) API but instead requires

OMX_AllocateBuffer to be used.

"requires-allocate-on-output-ports"

must be advertised if the component does not properly support specification

of output buffers using the OMX_UseBuffer(...) API but instead requires

OMX_AllocateBuffer to be used.

"output-buffers-are-unreadable"

must be advertised if the emitted output buffers of a decoder component

are not readable, i.e. use a custom format even though abusing one of

the official OMX colorspace constants.

Clients of such decoders will not be able to access the decoded data,

naturally making the component much less useful. The only use for

a component with this quirk is to render the output to the screen.

Audio decoders MUST NOT advertise this quirk.

Video decoders that advertise this quirk must be accompanied by a

corresponding color space converter for thumbnail extraction,

matching surfaceflinger support that can render the custom format to

a texture and possibly other code, so just DON'T USE THIS QUIRK.
