- 3D with special KODI version: not working (sound is playing, but no video)

Linux::
- audio passthrough: not working (only tested Atmos and DTS:X)

Sorry Intel, but Kaby/Apollo-Lake is a total mess!

The AsRock Beebox Kaby Lake is the only Kaby Lake device working with 3D MVC.

Why is that so? Is it only drivers issue which should be solved soon?
Again I will write this because my post has lost between one conversation. It is worth to wait with kaby lake purchase. Because of ryzen release Intel's new processors prices started to drop dramatically. Therefore some boxes also should be chepear soon.
Maybe it will be worth to add zotac boxes to hardware list. They have wide list of boxes which should fit anyone needs. Personally I hunt for mi572 with i7700t processor and thunderbolt 3 port which give me chance to add egpu and make it power gaming box.
Only this 3d MVC issue worries me a little because I have a bunch movies to play on my new box

Biggest requirement that it is absolutely silent, thus preferably fanless. None of the NUC s seem to offer that.

Apollo lake does offer that and plays every content now quite ok (if you only need hdmi 1.4 thus skipping the hdmi dp converter).

However I'm also aware of the fact that kaby lake will be more future proof, not in the last place because it has full pcie 16x slot so I can throw in a newer gpu when the system is aging. And also more horsepower when newest codecs need to be decoded in sw.

Hmmmmmm..... choices choices choices....

Can you give some NUC Kaby Lake model-numbers that has become cheaper last days? Here in the Netherlands the introduction prices for some i3 models were very high (± €400,-), but the NUC's weren't available at that time. Then there was a price dip when they could be ordered (± €350,-), but still not really available, mostly in back-order. At the moment a lot of shops had them in stock, the price went straight to ± €300,- for the i3 models NUC7i3BNH and NUC7i3BNK.

As I follow only nuc7i7bnh prices I can give you only this example. Since first check they dropped about 500 kr in Norway. Of course it's preorder. I don't know how it looks like with other models

From the specs I read:
Supports Dual Monitor (2 x HDMI or HDMI+DisplayPort)
Does this mean that the video output can be shown on two monitors at the same time using 2 HDMI cables?

Did try connecting both HDMI to my AVR and I felt that playback was a little bit dragging.
