Can you add support for playing Indeo Video 4-5 through DirectShow? (When Indeo Video filter is already installed on user's machine)
Can you add support for playing Real video through DirectShow? (When Real codecs are already installed on user's machine)

There is a opensource RealMedia Splitter in this page: http://sourceforge.net/projects/guliverkli/

I hoped it isn't hard to implement these things.

I think this would not be cross platform/ cross OS...

It isn't cross platform but VLC does a similar thing for WMV3.
It is better "windows only" than noone.

Afaik WMV3 is decoded by ffmpeg, and not directshow, on all supported platforms.

In 0.8.6, WMV3 will be for everyone...
But, AFAIK coding support for DirectShow is not being worked on.

Can you use the code used for wmv3 to make playable Real video at least (when real codec is already installed)?
