Intel VAAPI howto with Leia v18 nightly based on Ubuntu 18.04 server
Only three combinations make sense:

1.) TV Limited Range -> Xrandr Full Range -> Kodi Use Limited <- what this howto suggests
2.) TV Full -> Xrandr Full -> Kodi DON'T use Limited + Dithering Enabled <- alternative if you look at pictures very often
(3.) TV Limited -> Xrandr "Limited 16:235" -> Kodi DON'T use Limited) <- in brackets, cause here we scale up and the driver scales down

Buffering:
- If TripleBuffer is disable, you choose 2 Buffers
- If TripleBuffer is enabled, you choose 3 Buffers

DRI3 is suggested as it cleans up a lot of legacy DRI code. You can see the effect in kodi GUI. With DRI3 it's measurable more fluent.

AccelMethod with the intel driver should be SNA by default in the meantime.

Composite documentation: ftp://www.x.org/pub/X11R7.7-RC1/doc/man/...nf.5.xhtml keep it disabled

LE make most of above things automatic for you (your TV obviously not).
First decide what functions / features you expect from a system. Then decide for the hardware. Don't waste your money on crap.
