Yes. From xbmc's point of view newclock4 always uses dvdplayer for video. E.g. you can no longer context-menu and "play using omxplayer" or set omxplayer in advancedsettings.
There is no omxplayer as a player as far as xbmc knows.
However you can get the same *behaviour* as you used to get with omxplayer by enabling omxplayer acceleration when using dvdplayer.
This uses most of the same code as omxplayer used with newlock3 and will have the same performance as omxplayer had.
