I'd like to play 1:1 rips of my blu rays stored on a Windows Home Server over wired network. They mostly have dts-hd master audio. Is this possible with the current builds on the Pi?

Only if you have a DTS capable receiver, so you can pass it through. The RPi is not strong enough to decode Video & DTS audio at the same time.
AC3 seems to work, other than that, MP3, OGG Vorbis & AAC are the way to go !

Thanks Sebert. I have a dts-ma receiver. I thought the 30gb 1080p video file might trip this little fella up. Perhaps I should get one anyway, my last xbmc update on my Xbox one was years ago. Still used daily by my daughter to watch her film collection though. Time I was back on the bleeding edge - stability is overrated!

Has anyone tried the CEC support for the RPi? Is an adapter needed, ala the PulseEight CEC adapter, or will it work out of the box?

Simon156 Blu-ray's come in MPEG-2, VC-1 and H.264 flavours, the R-Pi only has hardware decoding for MPEG-4 and H.264 video so BD's in those other formats wont be playable.
