Add New Video Renderers - MadVR about sagetv

[Narflex]

Adding new video renderers isn't all that trivial. The main reason is integration with the 3D rendering system so you can do UI overlays on top of video. If MadVR has the same interfaces used by EVR or VMR9; then it would be much easier to integrate. Does Kodi support blending of UI on top of video when using the MadVR renderer?

Transparent UI overlays do work in Kodi using MadVR (this is using the DSPlayer variant of Kodi). I've no idea on interfaces I'm afraid, I'm just a user. I'm seeing far better results using MadVR with LAVFilters in Kodi (fewer drops, lower CPU etc.). It would be nice to try with Sage, but I'm sure there are more important things.

If anybody wants to dig into this...feel free to ping me as always; I'm
more than happy to be a consultant on any SageTV work that gets down and
dirty with the SageTV internals. :)
