Thanks for the tip. Maybe I'll give it a try.

[ This is just the kind of manual bitbake tinkering that makes
  the FSL Yocto such a joy to work with. ]

However, I won't be betting that gstreamer 1.0 will somehow work
better. After all, webkit copies into its Cairo drawable in the sink.
That alone will cause a too high CPU load with a full screen video.

Thanks,
