Partly.  The incompatibility's that have been reported all seem to
correlate to DPME, not to presence/lack of B frames.  So, it would
seem that for best compatibility you'd want to turn off DPME, but you
could still choose absence/presence of B frames without it effecting
compatibility.

Since you found a hardware player that seems allergic to -R 0
streams, why not test it for us.  Make a -R 0 stream without DPME,
and make a -R 1 or -R 2 stream (which will automatically force DPME
off) and test it on the player.  Let us know which one works and
which one does not.
