Wouldnt the natural replacement for DirectShow be GStreamer? ( http://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/ ). The concept of filter graphs allows alot of freedom. But maybe MPlayer has something similar?

Apart from that, let me wish you the best of luck

Personally i just managed to learn enough about DirectShow to help out, and basicly i just want a stable powerful HTPC, so im going to keep working on the Windoze side even though i would prefer a Linux based media center.

I really hope this is not going to split the development effort, the two developers on this could instead be working on the current version, instead of duplicating work that has already been done.
