Accelerated H.264 and HEVC video decoding with Cedrus

In Armbian we include an own mpv package since a few days:

Code:
tk@bananapi:~$ mpv --version
mpv 0.16.0-git-9d2980d (C) 2000-2016 mpv/MPlayer/mplayer2 projects
built on Sat Mar  5 16:11:21 EET 2016
ffmpeg library versions:
  libavutil       55.17.103
  libavcodec      57.24.102
  libavformat     57.25.100
  libswscale      4.0.100
  libavfilter     6.31.100
  libswresample   2.0.101
ffmpeg version: n3.0

I just tried it out with a desktop/GUI build for the old slow dual core A20, connected an USB disk that was lying around, double clicked a huge .mp4 and to my surprise even this 1080p/H.264 file was played absolutely smoothly on this old board. I will try to build a .deb for Pine64 the next days and post a link.
