@fire219 Awesome screenshot, do you have a link to that doc, can't seem to find it on the resources page. However this doesn't alleviate all my concerns. Will ffmpeg be able to use these hardware decoders/encoders or is support likely to take 1-2 years if ever? And then on top of that plex media server barely even supports Intel hw acceleration, but I'd still be happy to there is a future possibility.
Not sure about ffmpeg as been trying to work that one out myself.

As for media server I have been thinking of using a client side aka Kodi solution.
Still waiting for my board so its all guess work at the moment but planning on creating a media mesh of Rock64's with either nfs/samba shares pooled via aufs so it looks like a single volume.
The confusion with Kodi on what they will or will not support, if its android or not... Seems to be circular and just going to have to give it a go.
For a new chip and the updates and work is fast and furious and many vendors seem to be adopting it, so its looking very probable.
