Description
Codec support is making our Directshow based player much, much harder to maintain ( see: https://github.com/openframeworks/openFrameworks/issues/5114#issuecomment-223786484 )
It would be good to look at adding the Windows Media Foundation player to the core which has native mp4 support:

Maybe keeping legacy support for the Directshow player as an option.
