-> bugs.freedesktop.org it's a radeon kernel issue.

Thank you Fritsch but why radeon when I don't have any gpu besides the igpu on the G1610?

RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2015-11-29
That's a very, very good question - see the callstack - radeon is involved? No idea how.
Edit: Looking again. It happens very, very early on bootup. OE builds radeon and i915 fixed into the kernel - so it seems they fight against each other. A bug report is good.
RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - Steve-o - 2015-11-29
Thank you for your reply.
I rebooted the device with the addon disabled and started a 24p MKV movie.
For some kind of reason kodi was reproducibly not starting the movie at a 24 Hz refresh but at a 50 Hz refresh. I manually ran xrandr once via ssh, which apparently triggered the detection of the other supported modes (http://paste.ubuntu.com/13562377/) with kodi already running. After that kodi changed to 24 Hz with no problems.
For this movie, the error did not occur - sync was fine until the end. I will try to obtain a log next time the sync problem is happing - the log is still attached for the mode change issue.
The computer running kodi is running 24/7. I wonder, if the sync errors might happen due to the TV being switched off and on repeatedly in between watching videos?
kodi log:

RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2015-11-29
Yes - both possible. For the non existing modes, please see the second post in this thread - it's a driver issue fixed with the driver provided there.
Whenever you turn off the TV the output stops - if that's your usecase consider overwriting the EDID information to force the display on.

Kernel: http://fritsch.fruehberger.net/kernel/?C=M;O=D - this should also fix the issue with "switching" to the mode
Your kernel has other OE patch or only passthrough patch as previously?
RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - fritsch - 2015-11-29
Yours won't work for sure on 4.4-rc2 ... as you easily see it won't even compile as fields have gone.
RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - BigL-New - 2015-11-29
That's why i've applied MODIFIED patch ;-) (modified by myself to be applicable to 4.4 kernel - i learn quickly
.Anyway yours is probably better so right now i compile 4.4-rc2 kernel with passthrough and all other OE patches i've applied to 4.3 kernel (all of them can be applied to 4.4 without changes).

Thanks a lot!!! Final question: why it doesn't happen in my j1900 nor my 1037u boards?
Anyway thanks again.

RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - BigL-New - 2015-11-30
So far so good - only variables names to change
There is a hope for inclusion in 4.4 kernel? I hope so.
RE: New Era: VAAPI with EGL interoperation - BigL-New - 2015-11-30
@fritsch
Strange: with you previous patch applied by me to 4.4 kernel everything was as expected (as it was with 4.3 kernel) - with my TV (limited range without manual switch) i had good colours with Limited Range set in Kodi (and also 8-bit dithering). On calibration patterns blacks were ok (everything below 16 was black) and whites were "over range" (blinking bars up to 253, and 254 was 100% white).
With you new patch for 4.4 kernel applied to 4.4-rc3 it's first time i get colours how they should be "by the book" for limited range. On calibration patterns everything below 16 is black and for whites everything over 235 is 100% white. But it's with Full Range set in Kodi, with Limited Range all colours are totally washed-out.

I don't understand your second sentence ...
