this patch can be applied to the mplayer sources in the xbmc cvs with a little bit of tweaking. i have the updated mplayer.dll binary i made for my own use, which i'd be happy to distribute if someone wants to donate the server space that way, you could just drop the new mplayer.dll over the old one on your xbox. the binary is not compiled against any ms sdk's, and is all open source, so legal concerns shouldn't be an issue.
alternatively, does anyone have a version of mplayer.dll that can play mpeg2 and mpeg4 encoded mythtv files? and which they are willing to send me?
