[PD] a really fast-to-read codec in linux?

the video installations I made in 2006-2008 did the following on a single
Mac Quad G5 (later MacPro)

- Display live feed from 1080i camera
- record live cam to disk at full frame rate
- put live feed into 300 frame buffer and scrub through it at various rates
- play up to 4 1080i clips off of two hard drives.

This was all done with plenty of CPU in reserve.  The codec was
AppleIntemediate which is simply Photo-JPEG with specific CPU optimizations.


You can see one of these in the lobby of OneArts Plaza in Dallas, Qualcomm
HQ in San Diego and several private collections.
