Hi.

The fact that there's no plan of improving the internal x264 decoder
doesn't mean you're prohibited from doing such a thing, it's just that
the effort is mainly driven on improving the encoder first. Also, making
the internal decoder work would mean no longer having to download
the whole ffmpeg library just to decode x264(at least on Windows, that is).
