Re: [AD] WebM - messy

Not sure I want to finish this, but I've attached it.

It plays webm fine. Seek/pause not supported yet, nor is audio.

This also adds a small bit of code that allows OGV/WebM to both be built and
work at the same time, chosen by file extension.

Subject: [AD] WebM - messy

I'm able to play WebM videos (no audio) but I'm not sure this is much better
than ffmpeg. I have to copy a ton of headers and source files out of the
libvpx tree. There's probably a way to use just the core libvpx but there's
no documentation and I'm sure it would be a lot more difficult. What I used
is "vpxdec" from libvpx as a starting point.

Process would basically be: build libvpx, make libraries out of libwebm and
libyuv (included in libvpx but it doesn't build libraries, it does build the
object files though), manually install those libraries along with make
install for libvpx. Then you could build the video player which includes a
whole bunch of files from libvpx... not pretty.

It does have the advantage of being patent free, though. Not sure if I
should continue on with it or not.
