I think one point bears repeating, without the slightest shade of doubt.
The main reason to use Kodi DSPlayer is to have access to madVR video processing and scaling algorithms. Whatever your source resolution is, always output to your panel/TV native resolution and use madVR to scale to that resolution.
As Warner306 pointed out, you are going to use scaling algorithms far more advanced than the ones used in whatever display/projector you'll be using. GPU computational capabilities on a PC level card are simply far higher than what's available for consumer electronics SoC (System on Chips).
You'll tipically use an AMD card or a Nvidia Card. Both have computational power measured in teraflops. Forget about getting that power on SoC.
So if you want to use Kodi DSPlayer and not waste your time and your GPU, use madVR to scale content to your TV/panel/projector native resolution. End of story, really.
