Added this info to the Pick the Right Kodi Box.
What 1080p HEVC Bitrates are we talking here ?
got a link to some test clips handy? If so, I'll test and let you know
edit: tested some of the samples linked from the samples wiki page, and it's hard to make a generalization based on bitrate and framerate because encoding profiles differ so greatly. I can say that all of the 1080p 24/30 fps samples linked from http://www.libde265.org/downloads-videos/ played without a problem, but the two "H.265 1080p (medium bitrate)" test files linked directly from the wiki page (also 24fps) pegged both CPU cores at nearly 100% and were not smooth to watch. If I had to generalize, it seems like most <10Mbps 24/30fps content wasn't a problem.
