what mpeg2/h.264 profiles@levels supported?

Thu Feb 21, 2013 10:55 pm

I have some video clips that do not decode. They all use 4:2:2 chroma subsampling. I have installed the mpeg2 license.
Here is output from MediaInfo...
VIDEO 1:
Format : MPEG Video
Format version : Version 2
Format profile : Main@High
Codec ID : 2
Frame rate : 29.970 fps
Chroma subsampling : 4:2:2

VIDEO2:
Format : MPEG Video
Format version : Version 2
Format profile : 4:2:2@High
Codec ID : 2
Frame rate : 29.970 fps
Chroma subsampling : 4:2:2

VIDEO 3:
Format : AVC
Format/Info : Advanced Video Codec
Format profile : High 4:2:2@L4.0
Codec ID : 27

Is the problem with the bcm2835 silicon? or
Is the problem with the firmware/microcode? or
Is the problem with the kernal? or
Is the problem with omxplayer?

And would somebody affiliated with Broadcom or the RPi Foundation please document which mpeg2 and mpeg4 Profiles and Levels (or combinations) are supported by the BCM Video Core IV GPU.

Thanks in advance.
