Who is this fun-gi growing on the Left Coast?

Anyone know what kind of mushroom this is?  And more importantly, can I dye wool with it?

On the islands on the south, left coast of Canada.  Found this mushroom creeping around under the bark of dead and mostly dead Douglas fir.  Although some of the live ones nearby have signs of this too.  

I'm not that well acquainted with the mushrooms in your region, but if I had to guess I would say it is some type of Fomitopsis species, perhaps Fomitopsis officinalis or F. pinicola. I'm prepared to be wrong, but if I ran across something with those features in Northern Michigan, I'd say F. pinicola for sure.

Maybe this?  46 seconds into this video.



My dyslexia is acting up right now,  so I cannot type the word so Google can find it.  But note to self to search for it later.

From the video: "Pycnoporellus fulgens". It does look the same fungi to me. How exciting! I never knew you could dye with fungi, but there is a society dedicated to the art: http://sonic.net/~dbeebee/IMDI.htm

It seems quite easy  according to http://www.somamushrooms.org/dyes/ just chop the fungi up and heat them in water to extract any colour they may have. From the same site it suggests that bracket fungi like that are good for paper making too, so if they are no good for a dye colour, you could always try that.
