Just wanted to report that the EGL/Passthrough test version I installed yesterday worked flawlessly for a movie... and the picture looked fantastic and smooth with great shadow detail!
No lipsync issues bitstreaming TrueHD with a manual -175ms delay (no idea what the default is right now), and no skipped frames like I used to get on my original NUC (which couldn't hold 23.976 correctly).
However, I do have VAAPI currently disabled due to the skip bug - because on bigger files that have been playing a while, simply hitting the 7 second back button to watch some detail again was enough to lock the system up. Note that I have not tried it on the current build, but I haven't heard that anything was worked on in that regard.
