they claim 1080P playback from mkv containers, so i think it should work.

do note, the upgrade from the smartq5 is dedicated video decoder hardware, while the rest stays mostly the same.

the smartq5 had something similar btw, and used a mplayer variant with unshared modifications, so expect the same here. That is, if one installs something other then the official firmware, playback may be a problem.

and as we are talking about a chinese company that have no external presence, good luck dragging them to court for GPL breach...
