Description

It would be nice to try out new Renderers, particularly MadVR which is giving good results with Kodi in Windows. Currently we seem to just have the fixed list.

MadVR is here:

EVR works okay, but I tend to lose the last few seconds of imported videos, and MadVR has far more tweaking options. Obviously this isn't an urgent request... Thanks.

Research direction

The issue does not name files, tests, or entry points. Start by locating the current fixed list of video renderers and reviewing how EVR is selected; determine the integration and configuration requirements for MadVR, then verify that imported videos no longer lose their final seconds and that MadVR options work.
