So over on the kodi forum I just got a reply from one of the devs stating
We don't ship code that would be able to do VDPAU on your hardware. Only a special patched version without any mainline support was done by a dev "somewhere on the internet". mplayer does not use OpenGL. To use VDPAU on kodi glinterop extension is mandatory, which your mesa / glx drivers don't have.
Does anyone think this this extension will be available on the pine64 hardware with the Mali driver / kernel module?
Or should I plan to use my pine for something else and get a different board for Kodi?
