Okay, so I've tested with a few things, and unfortunately the results are not so great.
I haven't explicitly noticed stuttering, but it is happening, as I can see the dropped frame count increment, about 1-2 frames every 7-10 minutes or so on every title that I try with HD audio.
So, with Avatar, after watching for about 20 minutes (and not particularly paying much attention to it) I went from zero initial frame drops to about 4. I suspect that this has to do with the fact that the "match refresh rate to source" AND "sync to display" options are set and with bitstream HD audio this does not work quite correctly (I believe I am using the default option for match refresh rate that does audio re-sampling, perhaps that is the culprit).
Another odd thing I notice is that with the regular Beta 2 (and Beta 1) builds of Eden, I would observe a quick flicker or pause at the start of playback when the display synced back up to the XBMC source, strangely with this build that does not seem to be happening, I never observe a pause during sync, even though I can see by looking at the diagnostic data that the frame rate is changing from 1080p/60 in the menus to 1080p/23.976 during media playback.
Very very odd.
