I discussed that issue with fernetmenta a bit. The problem with "opt out" is that it might suck for some users with exactly that content that makes issues - they could just disable Mediacodec and Mediacodec Surface every time they play this problematic DVD (not nice, but a workaround). For "opt in" we don't have an option at all - means you have no chance to "force mediacodec" for those dvds, which renders you in a state where you cannot play these at all.
So current discussion goes towards an Expert-Setting: "Allow acceleration for DVD playback" that will be Android only, but off by default.
This setting is also only needed, cause for now no one wanted to fix the root cause - properly implementing Drain() in Decoder. But we are happy to get what is possible on this platform nowadays ...
