1) There are no "best" settings. Some setting can be better for you, but worse to someone else. And of course it depend on source and so on.
So, as for me - I'm watching high quality BDRip's (and other video that has same quality) and I don't find detail and light boost useful.
Motion² is the other thing. Higher number means smoother result by the cost of the artifacts. If I'm using it - I always use 10.
2) It's not possible to use other renderer or decoder or anything else with splash, so Splash + madVR is impossible.
But, madVR is better render (it's not the decoder!) than Splash's renderer due to higher precision and better upscaling algorithms. On the other hand Motion² is unique, and with other players you have to use SVP, which uses much more resources.
Also there is such thing as 10-bit video (mostly anime rips), which should be played using CoreAVC (with 10bit output) or internal madVR decoder (it also has 10 bit output) + madVR. Splash doesn't support 10-bit video yet.
