Okay, as usual you're right! Upgraded fine, VAAPI enabled, graduations look flawless just like I had before, but now with an even more power efficient method.
On one sample 1080p file, CPU copying uses around 8-14% CPU power, but just 2-8% with VAAPI.
Must say... Kodi/OpenElec appliances are basically my favorite tech devices out there! Between all the customizations, hacking my display EDID, modifying Confluence to include home menu options for my security cameras (and putting the year of a movie on the pop-up info bar - why isn't this done already??)... it performs better than any other media solution out there!
