AFAIK there has been no progress.  I had a look at the relevant code recently. 
It seems that the remaining issues (like missing autostart and poster features)
are not bugs, but features that haven't been implemented yet at all.  In
particular, it appears that poppler (the library that does the actual pdf
parsing) does not expose all the relevant information to okular (I think that
is what the poppler TODO item "expose Rendition media through the MovieObject
API" means).  Hence further progress involves additions to poppler, and even
additions to the poppler qt4 interface.

I think the most difficult part for people without okular/poppler hacking
experience are the interface enhancements.  How are they supposed to look like?
 How is the movie poster image supposed to get from poppler to okular?  Maybe
one of the experts could comment on that.  I would find implementing the
actually functionality much easier with that information.
