Well... In principle MPlayer can use Windows codecs, so you could e.g.
use MPlayer with ffdshow for selected codecs to get HW acceleration.
The "native dshow" stuff here: http://oss.netfarm.it/mplayer-win32.php
might be easier to get to work (though I haven't tried it or even looked
at the code).
However I wouldn't really recommend this approach, it sounds rather brittle.
And in addition I am not sure ffdshow supports DXVA 1 - if it does, that
means FFmpeg "supports" it as well, and writing a VO for MPlayer to support
it might not be that hard - but I don't know.
