Not with hardware decoding. At least there is no API for it. Maybe with manipulated pre-decoding stuff, but it's not likely I will start to spend time on tweak like that in near future.
I heard about the green tint effect, I feel sorry for those who have to deal with it in the Toshiba E800 and HP HX4700. After all, the chip IS 2 years old and ATI doesn't exactly want to 'upgrade' it to get rid of the bug.

Well, the dithering is a minor point, I'd much rather have higher framerate playback than dithering madness :). Any plans for subtitle support in the future? Too much anime nowadays come in the OGM container with removeable subtitles.
