How about adding a dummy/do-nothing filter that passes through
everything. That would some the problem for now... Or, just make a
special code that the config parser interprets (e.g. "none") to clear
the filter list.

But I also think putting vop=pp in your config is a dumb idea...
Postproc is a very bad idea unless you're watching really bad low
quality movies.
