[QUOTE="jlewalle, post: 64535, member: 22504"] Forgive me for not being entirely familar with the architecture just yet. So right now video is provided as raw frames from some source, and the only activex used is to play audio? Is that the general idea right now? What would be nice, is if we could take the time to see what changes are necessary to the VLC ActiveX so that we can get raw frame data. And then, because I believe in options, I like something like this: IFrameSource - CurrentVideoFrameSource (I dunno what's being used now, but the current implementation can live here) - VlcFrameSource - VisualizationFrameSource - WebCamFrameSource - PictureSlideShowFrameSource (not sure if this one makes sense, because it's probably better to think of the picture slideshows on a higher level than raw frames) - VncFrameSource (hehe) etc... IFrameRenderer - WindowedFrameRenderer - FullScreenFrameRenderer - TwirlingInCrazyCirclesRenderer I would be crazy excited about something like this. Of course, I imagine the hard part is the Vlc/Mplayer frame sources. How much work was integrating mplayer in the XBMC project? I'm usually against massive changes to 3rd party projects for integrating them, but perhaps there's a middleground we can find. Thoguhts? [/QUOTE]
