What do "Use alternate OSD with missing video" and "Handle MCE Remote events" do?

The first one is related to new code that attempts to deal with non-broadcasting channels, and tries to keep the OSD working (and displaying the correct channel information) as you channel flick through stuff like BBC3/BBC4 during their off-air hours. I guess the fix (which isn't fully functional) required a different type of rendering to be used or something.

If you untick this, then the application wont do it's default handling of key presses from MCE remote. This was requested by a few users that wanted to do their own custom MCE key mappings using utilities like HIP/IRSS/EventGhost.

Regarding the alternate OSD - normally video renderers will not display/update OSD graphics until the next video frame is presented. This is a problem if you're trying to display 'no signal' or 'video encrypted' type messages, which no video frames are being presented. This would previously just give a window that was left with what looked like a frozen frame of video from the last channel, or just black, and the OSD changes would not be showing. This change was attempt at forcing the OSD to appear using a few tricks.

I wasnt 100% happy with it, so it was off by default, but I'll try to improve over the coming releases.

MCE remote events - so, if it is unticked, it will ignore the MCE remote completely?

No, not completely, since some keys just look like normal keys from a keyboard (numbers etc), but it will ignore most of the keys.
