I'm confused. If MX player uses common Android functionality to make H/W decoding possible on the A10 why wouldn't this be possible with XBMC?
Well, I can think of a few reasons, but they are far too negative. There must be a logical reason, right?

This is pure tecnical, we focus on using OpenMAX on Android. Allwinner doesn't have working OpenMAX components, as far as i know.

Fantastic, then not all is lost:

Allwinner is redeveloping the cedarX by following OPENMAX too and will share with the community once available.
