If you want it easy, cherry-pick the latest two commits of my master branch. Those install a patched ffmpeg version and have the commit by annsi picked on top.
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.

Is the patch already implemented in the newest nightly builds? If not when will it be?
Thanks.

FFmpeg 2.4.1 was released, which does not include that patchset.
We will only pick it, when it is going into the 2.4 ffmpeg branch. OpenELEC has the manpower (:-)) to maintain some hundred out of tree patches, but we (xbmc upstream) don't want to do that - though the final decision was not yet done (neither nacked nor acked) - we will give that ffmpeg patch a bit of time and will see when Kodi gets out of alpha stage.

for me personally this would be a much smaller issue if MakeMKV could strip out the atmos bits. here's hoping!

Why ripping something out - that you might need some years later?

as a practice i've only been grabbing the main movie, audio and commentary (when available) from my blurays. Transformers Age of Extinction is coming in about a week and I won't be able to enjoy TrueHD unless I throw the physical disc into my PS3.
my understanding is that without patched FFmpeg and an updated XBMC build i can't bitstream audio tracks containing atmos.

OE will also bitstream with AMD. The driver was fixed starting with 4.0
