Comment (by stippi):
No, not yet. In FFmpeg 0.6, there is support for the WebM container in the
Matroska demuxer, already active. Then there is an optional decoder (and I
think encoder, too) which needs libvpx. I've ported libvpx here locally
(compiles out of the box, once you have added Haiku support to the build
system), but I haven't gotten around to send my patch upstream and also
not to integrate libvpx into the FFmpeg plugin. Current versions of FFmpeg
contain their own (faster) VP8 decoder. libvpx is quite a bit of code,
upgrading FFmpeg to a random SVN version looks somewhat attractive
considering that, but on the other hand VP8 support is not really
important as long as we have no HTML5 video support in WebPositive anyway.
I certainly won't work on any of this for the next year at least... so low
hanging fruit for someone who wants to get their hands dirty!
