This is just a stop-gap measure till the developer returns as I can only do basic patches and builds like this.

Changelog since 17.3 DSPlayer:

- Updated to 17.5RC1 (git commit: 94bf83f)
- Latest LAV Filters included which support D3D11 HW accel, needs latest madVR version to work properly and doesn't work in combination with NNEDI (at least with my Nvidia setup).
- D3D11 added as LAV HW accel option from within UI.
- Bugfix for invalid chapter names resulting in crash, thanks @Kolabor for debugging and spotting this error.

It's a bit early to include LAV Filters as they are from the nightly but already had the UI changes in place and seems to run just fine, if anyone runs into problems will revert it

Setup 32bit: DSPlayer 17.5RC1 Krypton - build (20170902-d83d21cd44)

there are two D3D11 mode, selecting a specific device to use in "Device to use" disables Native mode and force Copy-Back, Use Automatic (Native) for best perfmance.

so to have D3D11 Native (and to see DX11 in madVR) you have to select
- Hardware Decoder to use: D3D11
- Hardware Device to use: Automatic (Native)

for D3D11 Copy-Back you have to select
- Hardware Decoder to use: D3D11
- Hardware Device to use: <specific hardware device from the drop list menu> (in your case the 1080ti)
