Nothing has changed in the Ogg bitstream or the Theora format.
However, the new encoders make use of more freedom allowed by the
format, so code that just handled the subset used by previous versions
of the libtheora encoder might be confused by newer streams.
This should not affect duration determination though, as the container
layer (which you get time from) hasn't changed, but MPC-HC might have
custom code that decodes at the same time.
(I assume that by splitter, you mean demuxer ?)
