Does it work without artefacts?

 J4205-ITX - AVR Denon X6200W - Sharp LC-60UQ10 work fine, without artifacts. Build Generic.

 I just wanted to ask, if you would (still) recommend an ASRock J3455-itx, if I want to do an upgrade?

 I would wait for Gemini Lake in Q1 2018. My own Apollo Lake will replace J1900 in my 24/7 Server as soon as possible, because I am disappointed very much from LSPCON, Aspect Ratio and HD Audio Bugs. Actually I wonder why no-one complains about the aspect ratio bug since LSPCON 1.66 on Apollo Lake Mainboards.

+1 to that. Though HD Audio is fully working for me: X1300W + drm-intel-nightly since some months. I use LSPCON 1.72 which made different issues for others.

Or will there be a delay (don't know how it was like when Apollo Lake was available)?

We take patches from those with the hardware. And gratefully accept hardware donations.

Otherwise we have to guess at what needs fixing/changing, but that definitely won't be a high priority.

- we either backport libva / intel-vaapi-drivers from 2.x branch to 1.8x branch (I did that for coffee lake already) for LE or update libva to version 2.x <- needs to be considered for kodi in general after 2.1 is out with the VAAPI AMD changes that will finally make our VAAPI work on AMD, too.
- we use a recent kernel (check)
- we use recent mesa (check)

That should be it.

libva/intel-vaapi-driver etc. is already 2.0.0 in LE master.

I installed 2.71 and I still have aspect ratio error with latest 18 nightly buid. Also the screen is to dark.

Connected with hdmi 2.0 port to AVR, Fimware 1.71, win 10, Kodi 17.3

same with libreelec latest 18.0 testing

Menu with testbuild

when I connect to hdmi 1.4, then aspect ratio fits again, but picture ist still to dark
