Current State
The Rice Video plug-in was written in C++ and compiled with Microsoft Visual C++ 2005. The 5.2.x versions use DirectX 8.0, while versions 5.6.x use DirectX 8.1 and the current 6.1.0 release uses DirectX 9. It has since reverted back to DirectX 8.1.
Rice no longer maintains the plug-in, and has stated that he would like to see someone make use of the source code. An unofficial build of Rice Video, with various enhancements and bug fixes, was being developed by Mudlord and later developed by Aristotle. Now the plug-in is maintained by the community and is housed as part of the 1964 project, being referred to as 1964Video.
The Mupen64Plus project maintains newer versions of the Linux port made from the original Mupen64 port by Hacktarux. Considering the developments made to the port, the current 1964Video team is attempting to adopt any portable fixes and enhancements.
