Confirmed that (using Miappa's raspbmc build) dvdplayer is the default for DVD ISOs. Advancedsettings has omxplayer as the defaultdvdplayer. Also confirmed that still frames work properly with dvdplayer (just like they did on a PC).
I also found a workaround for the bug in the positioning of overlays. I noticed that dvdplayer positions the buttons at exactly the same coordinates. However, it stretches the video to full screen minus overscan, while omxplayer by default leaves a letterbox on the top and bottom sides and crops the overscan. If I set the viewing mode to "Stretch 16:9", the video spans the same rectangle as dvdplayer, and the buttons are in the right place!
Unfortunately, there is a bug in persisting the viewing mode when I choose to keep the current settings as default. The next time I open a video, the "Stretch 16:9" mode is selected, but the video shows the letterbox. Changing the video mode to something else and then back to "Stretch 16:9" makes it right again. This sounds easier to fix though than the overlay thing...
