The actual error (iirc) is earlier - this one lists two different decoders 
that are capable of h264, OMX.TI.DUCATI1.VIDEO.H264D and 
OMX.TI.DUCATI1.VIDEO.DECODER or similar - the latter is the one that 
should be good. IIRC it first tests that one, something fails, then it 
goes on to this one.

There's a few things to fix in this, but I just got a pandaboard set up 
with hw codecs, so I'll give it a look shortly (beginning of next week I 
hope).
