damn. i spent a few minutes digging in xbmc code looking for the d3d renderer. or even the mplayer code itself. i must be blind.

are any other gpl video players which we can steal from?

btw georgi , if its not clear... we all support you 100% in creating a d3d video output. i just posted some code so you could get ideas or swipe some shader programs. 

i look forward to testing your d3d patches on my various windows boxen + cards.
