Player class is rather standalone thing and should be used very carefully
in non-avifile projects - the API for player is likely to go through
some changes as the extensions are being add and it's not always
possible to maintian backward compatibility.
What should be usable relatively stable is the parsers - I guess
it's now compatbible for nearly 2 years (though extensions are
also being added here - but the API here is relatively stable).

If you would have build your own player - then yes - if you will
use AviPlayer class then you have very limited amount of work
as this class creates it's own set of threads - but you also
limitied control of what you can do with movie.
It might be eventually better to express your wishes and probabaly
add support for them directly to aviplayer class.

avibech is rather minimalistit - but it doesn't use player class -
only parser and renderer.

Yep - main problem of one-man project show :)...
