Picard (my new hero) has just released a closed-source plugin for Betaplayer which utilizes the new Intel 2700G Video decoder of Dell's Axim X50v.

To use it, you must first install BetaPlayer 0.093g; then install the Intel 2700G plugin.

Once the new player and the plugin are installed, you should have two new video options. Use 'Intel 2700G Decoder' to accelerate mpeg1 and mpeg4 decoding. With this decoder, I had a benchmark of over 200% (compared to 130% without using the plugin). What makes the plugin so great is that Axim X50v users can now lower CPU speed to save valuable battery power.
