[FFmpeg-devel] State of MJ2 support?

Hello,

I tried asking this question on the ffmpeg-users list last month, but
haven't recieved any response so I thought i'd ask here:

Does FFmpeg currently support decoding motion jpeg-2000 (mj2) movies?
The version of FFmpeg I'm using lists support for decoding m2:

[code]D  mov,mp4,m4a,3gp,3g2,mj2 QuickTime/MPEG4/Motion JPEG 2000 format[/code]

However, when I try to convert a mj2 file (e.g.
http://www.openjpeg.org/samples/Speedway.mj2) to another format,
 it complains about an "unsupported codec" for the input stream:

[code]
$ ffmpeg -i Speedway.mj2 out.mp4

[/code]

Anyone know whether it can be done? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!
Keith
