Media Player .NET (MPDN) - D3D HQ GPU Video Renderer [v2.49.0/v1.31.0 27 Dec 2018]

[Hera]

Is dxva2n support missing or did I set things up wrong? Using this with LAV filter (testing right now), Video decoder says "DXVA2 (native)" is "Available". (DX 10.1, Win 8.1, NV 660).
EDIT: Just found my answer - "MPDN isn't written with using DXVA at any stage in mind", well that is a performance bummer.

Anyway, some suggestions,
Going to "File" then "Open" brings up a dialog which then brings up a Windows dialog.
After choosing a file in the Windows dialog, the MPDN dialog remains and you have to close it.
Four clicks.
Suggestion, "Open" should bring up Windows dialog directly then when I choose a file in the Windows dialog, it should start playing the file.
Two clicks.

Ease of setup,
Can you include subtitle renderer as part of MPDN (I fathom this is a legal question)? Requiring separate download and install is a negative in my opinion.

Options,
Some questions that the options menu can answer:
(1) "What is faster?" (2) "What this does?" (3) "What is this options recommended for?"

I can only share it as closed source or don't share it at all (for reasons I can't disclose). If you want to learn about writing a video renderer, there are plenty of resources on the net to get you started.

Oh yeah, C++ is too complicated (for me) compared to unsafe C# code. Also, have you tried native .net native? I hope you'll reconsider; it would be a major bummer if development stopped and no one could take over.
