I've seen the MX player hacked file for DD/DTS to PCM support floating about somewhere too.
From what Noggin said, once we start Kodi however - open source software like ffmpeg starts decoding DTS to 2.0 PCM on AMLogic devices.
If you sold a device with no software included, like an S805 and run Kodi on it. No DTS licence would be needed.
If it is bundled with Kodi then arguably the supplier should provide the licence. If you install Kodi yourself then you are responsible for ensuring you meet the legal requirements of the country you are in. Or choosing not to.
