 Other codecs:
-Currently they don't work. I'm working on implementing libvo2 which
-will be a much more convenient and faster way of working with
-vo<->codec interaction. If libvo2 takes longer to develop than I

-you'll just have to wait for libvo2. (there is an implementation
-for other codecs, but I think it's pretty broken currently ;)
