Full 3D MVC playback is technically possible on any h/w that can decode MVC, but problem is how open the h/w is for devs to dig into, find appropriate driver(s), then work on adding Kodi support.

As of now, only Kodi device that natively supports MVC is Raspberry Pi. The upcoming Venz V8 is also promising it natively. Both of these are OpenELEC Kodi solutions using MVC decoder in the hardware.

For Shield to support MVC, nVidia would have to add support, and to date, they've said "no plans" to support it. But, when they asked what features people want in the future, MVC has come up repeatedly. So, it's possible if/when they add this support, Kodi devs could add it to Kodi just as they're working on now with HD audio.

Other than above, the rest of the MVC solutions with Kodi all involve varied external player implementations, a wrapper. So, you use Kodi, but actual MVC playback happens via an external player. Thread for all 3D player options in Kodi detailed in this stickied thread (provided HD audio is also supported).

Great post - thanks for this. I will check out the links.
