And btw i think that libpdemux must stay; single demuxers may be ported
to lavf, but MPlayer shuld keep its own complete data flow (stream
layer, demuxer layer, codecs, filters, ...).

Also whoever ports stuff to lav* should be careful on license issues
(i personally disagree to add GPL code to lav*, but I'm not the one
who have the final word on it).

Ciao,
 Roberto
