A good to know.
@all i can see the video playback corruption - but during my tests it only happens for h264 content. Mpeg4 and Mpeg2 and divx staff works fine here. It happens the same way on ios when disabling VTB decoder - so it is a generic issue - not tvos related ...

Yes you are right - no workaround atm.

vtb is private (even more it is flagged PROHIBITED in the headers) and doesn't bring any performance gain on tvos - this suggests that vtb internally also only does sw decoding on tvos. The A8 has power enought for 1080p decoding though.
There was a miss understanding - the issue only happens on 64bit arm builds when doing sw decode. It doesn't happen when using VTB decoder on ios 64bit. That workaround is not available for tvos. (as said - no vtb implemented here). But there is alot more to dig into for tvos - the player issue is only one of it (and of course at somepoint this will be solved ...).

The build is very stable.
As Memphiz said, this is an issue with the new videoplayer that needs to be worked out. MrMC is not using this videoplayer.
Please, don't use these early early early builds if you don't want to get your hands dirty and expect things to work as good as other things that may appear to be the same, but aren't.
Testing needs to occur for the new videoplayer stuff and myself am thankful that not only is someone working on tvos, but also is doing it in the open so others can help.
The 'full plan' is iterate until everything works good enough to merge into mainline and then test more to make sure everything else works I assume, like any other new platform Kodi has ever supported.

Might even be something in the ffmpeg Version mainline uses related to arm64
Someone would need to Downgrade ffmpeg to the Version mrmc uses and Test
