Is there any way to have this also able to leverage directshow?  Those
of us with nvidia chipsets who have purevideo installed would LOVE for
this to work.  NVidia's purevideo decoder is hands down the best video
output I've ever seen, and it's easily accessible through directshow
(media player classic is a GPL'd application that you could use for
reference).
