Guess only way is to go for intel nuc or ztac box then

Yes, but without the GPU accelerated codec it's all too much for the little ARM to handle.

I can buy that codec for the pi?

No (and the same situation with passthru).

First I tested the playback with both audio output settings

HDMI Audio 5.1 with Dolby D and DTS capable receivers enabled (passing through to ONKYO) - smooth playback, no glitch, buffering, frame drops or any kind of issue
HDMI Audio 2.0 with Dolby D and DTS capable receivers disabled (Downmix to stereo) - and yet again the same results, all smooth

Just to point out that the sound is DTS-MA HD but as the RPi has no support the output on HDMI is DTS and ONKYO detects and decode it as DTS or in case of True HD this would be sent out as Dolby Digital

So it played perfectly
Strange, you are the first one
Tested some more bd25?

What kind of pi, was this tested on?

I've tried xbian and had the same results. I don't have it overvolted tough (default xbian overclock).

Also, imho, it is slightly slower than openelec.

Cheers
