Yes, that's why it wasn't merged yet :) It needs someone to spend some
more time on it, make it more stable and work with more devices.

Check the configuration file for the Raspberry Pi that is included:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/gstreamer/gst-omx/tree/config/rpi/gstomx.conf

It lists every encoder/decoder element exposed by gst-omx and defines
the OpenMAX IL core library that is to be used, which gst-omx type name
should be used, which component name, etc.
The values of all these variables depend on your specific hardware.
