Hi,
at the moment i got a Apollo Lake Nuc for testing.
Video part is running fine. But Audio makes trouble.
Passthrough "works" but the the sound is struggling. Someone knows this issue?
Running Windows 10.

The Intel drivers are still shitty.

did a little bit more testing.
The Problem is just with 24p + Sound.
Withouth changing the frequency the sound works oO

I confirm kodi mvc is running stable on asrock 3455b board:
- not using for 4k playback (no 4k displays around)
- board has NOT the dp hdmi converter (so native hdmi 1.4 from Intel but CPU)
- runs all video material I throw at it, incl mvc framepack & hd audio pass-through up to atmos/dts-x, even with only 1 ram module.
- no cold boot issues even while it is powered from picopsu
- no power button issues with streacom f7c case. Yes that's a 'big' case but support upgrading in the future and bit more space inside so I don't expect to run into cooling issues that quickly.
- 100% silent as it has NO moving parts at all, also no coil whine.
- runs win10 for mvc playback, but libreelec runs just as fine on it (but no mvc though[emoji53] )
So I think this is almost perfect HTPC board. I'm very pleased.

PS: I do experience some micro stutter on some material... but didn't tweak kodi & gpu driver yet

Ok, stutter is not only problem. Huge av sync issue, depending on material. It is not just off-sync, one stream is quicker than the other. Sync is OK again on seek but starts to unsync quickly again. Feels like some sort of framerate issue. That actual framerate is quite different than framerate requested/reported by driver.
Yesterday watching some 3d material (tron legacy... soooo fucking fucking cool in 3d).
Perfect sync all the time, until I pressed pause.... after that drifting a lot. I had to skip from time to time to resync audio video.
BTW: 3d image is indeed very good, although color-wise the Rpi seems to have a bit more punch (maybe different gamma & saturation).
Athough, I expect it is more of a generic problem.
