The very first video frame rendered somewhat correctly. Still a long way to go before this is usable. Mind that the playback is via a Media Source enabled player. MS has forced me to refactor most of the code I've already had. Basically on sites like YT you get chunks of data sent in by JavaScript, separately for video and audio and so you've got to run two decoding pipelines at once. The upside is that this enables higher qualities on YT. The downside is that the CPU requirements for playback are higher than with the regular route where you get an URL to a video file and handle it as you wish.
