Media Codec Info - Android Hardware Decoder Information

Ever wondered which codecs your android decide supports natively?  You can use an app called Media Codec Info which will display all the hardware accelerated codecs.

A CPU decode also known as software decode might cause stuttering due to excessive workload. It will do the same job but using more resources.
