I just picked up an iMito MX1 android stick. It has two video players that use hardware decoding for 1080p movies and they play movies great. XBMC plays 1080p as well, but significantly slower. I'm assuming it isn't able to use the hardware. I have a computer running XBMC and if I connect to it with other upnp apps from my android tv, they all ask what player I want to use which works well, but just doesn't look as nice as XBMC. I've looked all over the settings and haven't found a way to have it open in another player.
I know that sort of defeats the purpose of it, but on the android version, this might be a useful feature until hardware support is more common or supported.
