HD audio is not even a no-go on Pi2/3.
Just bitstreaming is not possible, PCM passthrough works like a charm.
If someone wants the full HDMI 2.0 + HEVC + 10bit + HDR experience they should go for a SHIELD or maybe later an S905 (or just wait for actual content
).
...But to be honest I'm not a friend of in-between solutions that might be able to handle HEVC but cannot output HDMI 2.0 including HDR.
I'm even still a bit sceptical about the SHIELD because Dolby Vision and HDR10 with dynamic metadata are an if.
