The driver in DirectFB-extra was developed for the xine video provider.
It's intended to be used for internal purposes only.
The driver in xine-lib is more or less a port of the code from df_xine
and it is intended to be used by common applications.

What kind of features does libcle266mpegdec provide? Video motion
compesation?
The best solution for a VMC decoder would be writing video output driver
instead of a video decoder.
