If I'm not mistaken the Zorro2/3 autosensing Cybervision 64/3D (the later on DCE made) has mpeg decoding hardware...
It almost had MPEG decoding hardware, it used the same duaghterboard as PC's used for the Virge, except they are like rocking horse poo and I don't beleive the Amiga software ever made it out of the developers bedroom (now there's a surprise!)
It does however do YUV colour conversion and scaling in hardware which can accelerate MPEG/video decoding, but the software needs to make use of it, gives it a 15% or so boost I guess.
Quick edit : the name of the MPEG add-on is "S3 Scenic/MX2 MPEG-1 audio/video decoder" was an S3 produced add-on that the Cybervision3D could use as well.
