This update from his weekly checkins may be of some help:

Quote:At the moment the JSON-RPC API can be used to trigger transcoding of movies in Kodi's database. A new version of the movie will be created with all video streams encoded in H.264 and all audio streams encoded in AAC. All streams are multiplexed into a MP4 file. For my test video, this results in a copy that needs only half the disk space at the cost of slightly decreased video quality.

For some reason, there is no media player, except the VLC player, that would play the transcoded files. I guess it's missing some meta data or something. But since I wasted already a lot of time with inspecting the .mp4 files I now went over to work on integrating the transcoder into Kodi and to accessing it over the JSON-RPC API, which seems to be of avail.
