The theora encoding will be done with ffmpeg in future release of mediacoder. I've just updated theroa libraries to build into ffmpeg.

The Xiph.Org Foundation is pleased to announce the second release candidate of libtheora 1.0. This second release candidate corrects all bugs found in final testing of the first release candidate, and will become 1.0 final in one week if no new 'blockers' are found.

Full source downloads of the second release candidate are currently at http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/theora.
...and (bit older, sorry):

Theora: Ptalarbvorm project update 20100518

Post by forart.eu » Wed May 19, 2010 8:48 pm

Overview

Since the last update, we've released and seen wide adoption of the new Theora 1.1 'Thusnelda' encoder. The Thusnelda project concentrated on code review, cleanup, and improving efficiency of objectively measurable 'low hanging fruit'.

Encoder improvements continue with the upcoming 1.2 release, 'Ptalarbvorm' [Tall' - ar - vorm] (the P is silent, the b is optional). The Ptalarbvorm release continues with substantial subjective and psychovisual improvements to the encoder. Ptalarbvorm also addresses those aspects of Thusnelda encoding that were objective improvements but did not subjectively improve over the heuristic approaches in 1.0.

Ptalarbvorm is currently in a branch at http://svn.xiph.org/experimental/derf/t ... alarbvorm/.

...

Upcoming for 1.3 (Eyjafjallajökull ...err... Volcano)
Multithreading


At the moment, the main feature mentioned as landing post 1.2 is encoder multithreading.
Watch the improvements: http://people.xiph.org/~xiphmont/demo/theora/demo9.html
