Just wanted to say that bitstreaming and vdpau works great with the latest version of kodi from the unstable ppa running on ubuntu 14.04LTS Desktop amd64. Passthrough mode absolutely wouldn't work until I uninstalled pulseaudio. The first set of packages listed in the first post of this thread were also installed, but nothing else special config wise was needed.
Just watched 300 with TruHD and am now watching FireFly in DD+
Hardware is an AMD A10-5700 APU with Gallium Aruba onboard. While streaming 1080p uncompressed bluray rips CPU usage hovers around 10%

this is maybe better asked in the openELEC forum, but I figured I'd ask here as well - has this code made it into stable openELEC?

Everything is and will be in OpenELEC 5.0
4.2.1 has the gotham version back of the time.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

You miss permissions.
Make sure the user you are running kodi is member of video and audio.
cat /etc/group |grep -i "Your user name"
