Shouldn't this wait until after the direct rendering patch is merged 
into vlc.git?

Also, I would say we just use the full words as options, so like this: 
'Software', 'Hardware', 'Hardware (direct)'.

Otherwise it's harder for translators to translate 'HW' and it seems to 
resemble MX player too much.

Thanks,
