I have always assumed that it's precisely because Apple hasn't
licensed the right to provide decoding APIs through these codecs that
we are artificially prevented from such functionality. Isn't there
some add-on codec you can buy from Apple that includes the ability to
"export from MPEG-1/2" ? I always thought that once that was
installed any application would gain the magic powers.
I think it costs users around $30 to buy it.

The only problem with using libavcodec is no one is covering the

licensing payments that may occur.
By using in the pre-installed codec that comes with Mac OS X and
QuickTime, one does not need to ship such technology and therefore
needs not to deal with such licensing issues (unless there are
commercial deals, etc).
