I am curious about the history of this.  Was Nupplevideo the best choice
at the time the system was developed?  I have often wondered why Myth
uses the nupple player rather than taking something like mplayer and
adding Myth features to it (Myth OSD, keyboard interface, commercial skip
and editing modes.   Aside from the fact that mplayer seems a very actively
developed project with support for huge numbers of different video formats
(including nuv and ty) it would also mean a single player for DVDs, videos
and TV recordings with a single UI.

I think that there is a fair amount of this in the dev list archives.. But basically, as I understand it, NUV is the only container format that has per-frame sync adjustments, which Isaac felt/feels is necessary for some of the things that mythtv does with its software-encoded recordings.
