Nope, this happened much earlier. XBMC (Kodi) developers tried to cooperate with Allwinner back in 2012, but Allwinner managed to piss them off pretty badly: http://web.archive.org/web/2012112402562...te-5-last/
Nowadays the Allwinner's VPU has been fully reverse engineered and we can use it to do hardware accelerated video playback with 100% open source code. But Kodi people are still deliberately sabotaging Allwinner hardware and claim that it will be never supported in Kodi.
