I think you should have the settings in playercorefactory.xml to be compliant.
And to prevent questions: from what I understand you should be able to do whatever you are able to do with a regular DirectShow player, the same as with MPC-HC (built-in filters but the opportunity to work with external filters as well). Ideally, in the long run, we'll be able to handle filters internal/external with a mechanism similar to MPC-HC or, better IMO, Zoom Player.
Edit: tried the new build. Problems with subtitles remain. They either don't show up (external subs) or they completely stop the player from working (internal subs in mkv container). The files that work work quite well already.
For those interested: Reclock works with no problems, even accelerating 24fps to 25fps for those who need it (the opposite slowdown is clearly possible as well). That little clock icon turning green is something I really, really had given up on seeing in XBMC
.
Now we would really need somebody else being capable of helping tiben20. Carrying on development of this component all by himself is... daunting to say the least (and actually, seeing what he's been capable of alone it's a testimony of his will and skill).
Also, severe problems when going out from a movie playing and back to the regular interface (say, to check the weather). The screen messes up completely. This happens in both windowed and full screen modes.
