Ya I have used the WDM driver in the past and it mostly works but I had stability issues with it. Also problems with A/V sync even with adjusting buffer sizes. This may have been due to other issues on the computer I was testing it on though.

What made me decide to not use it though was mainly this. I also like to use JRSS in DSP but with WDM it's too limiting because JRSS treats all audio from WDM as "Music" and I watch and listen to a lot dialog centric content. JRSS treats audio files differently than video files and when listening to dialog through JRSS when it is being treated like music doesn't sound right. There is no way to switch or force JRSS into one of these two modes. I believe it decides which mode to work in based on the "media type" tag. MC automatically gives the WDM stream a media type of audio which forces JRSS to treat it as music. If we were allowed to modify the WDM media type tag to "Video" then we could choose how JRSS treats the stream but currently you cannot change this tag at all.

I agree with others, youtube.com/tv really should be used, not the standard youtube.com page. If the internal browser can be integrated into theater view as well this combination would make youtube much more seamless and a "part" of MC/thearter view. The current youtube implementation in theater view is very lacking.

Unless the browsers expose an interface to do that, thats not going to be possible - and so far, they don't.

In MC24, you will be able to choose which one you want under Tools > Options > Services.
