Based on tip of OpenELEC master (51eea0c6, changelog) and tip of XBMC master (3f18aa64, changelog) with the following modifications: Build Highlights:
  1. Switch to newclock5 branch, replacing DVDPlayer with refactored VideoPlayer.
    (2015-09-03, 13:22)FernetMenta Wrote: Kodi's video player is one of the oldest and most important components of the application. New features and ports to new platforms have long outgrown the original architecture of player. From its internal name "dvdplayer" you can tell how old this component is. In order to cope with current and future requirements like Ultra HD, MVC, 10bit depth, or PiP some elementary changes need to be done. The problem is that those changes require adjustments of platform dependent code. This dependency tremendously slows down development.

    Ideally video player is a self contained component or service with its own life cycle and versioning. This would allow updates and upgrades independently from the main application. One platform could choose to stay with version X while others go with version Y. Maybe video player itself will be comprised of services with its own versions: decoders, demuxers, video/audio renderers, etc.

    This is a long way and we need to get started somewhere. I requested this sub-forum to get platform devs involved, document and discuss what has been done so far, next steps, etc.
    Probably best for @popcornmix to explain expected benefits etc.
