I've done some x86 elf plugins and other optimizations for akMPEG now, with Amithlon in the mind. On my Athlon 1800 it's now possible to achieve better audio/video results than I previously could with any PPC card. Also, some questions on x86 plugins were answered here

x86 modules for akMPEG : Comment 6 of 6ANN.lu

In reply to Comment 4 (Mike Veroukis):
First of all: interested people should download it again, since 5.03 had the ELF loader disabled accidentally. Works in 5.04 (exe version string).
Regarding your question:
The ELF plugins took me only one day, and most of the time was spent checking
alternatives, getting familar with the compiler includes, finding some initial workarounds and tweaking GCC/nasm options under Linux.
I'd say, if you have the basic framework and know which routines you'd like to have x86 native,
it's a 1-2 hour job - including debugging - to for example make a DCT or dithering routine x86 native.
