None of these will be able to do h.265 reliably.

While that is true, hevc was not in the spec.
He mentions it in post #5.

I don't know when "when" was but as of now (and thanks to popcornmix partially) and as popcornmix said any raw bluray file will work. With o/c, and if over lan with some advancedsettings.xml tweaks. All that under openelec, don't know about raspbmc.
Hdaudio I think will not passthrough, but it will be downmixed.
The mpeg2 licence is like 2-3$, and you'll pay for it in any machine that can hardware decode it - it's just fixed in the price of most.

Same is true regarding raw blu-ray playback on the latest version of Raspbmc. Although I rip my blu-rays to mkv and not m2ts.

#1 on the ~$100 USD range
its either OUYA or AMAZON FIRE TV
using XBMC for android
#2 on the ~$150 USD range
its the TBS®2910 Matrix ARM mini PC
using OpenELEC
#3 on the ~$160 USD range
its the ASUS CHROMEBOX or HP CHROMEBOX
using OpenELEC.
MY pic, #3
Isn't Matrix tbs2910 with 1 ghz quad core CPU better than chromebox with 1.4 Gh celeron?
No, not even close. You cannot compare number of cores or Ghz for different processor families. Especially when they're completely different types of processors.

not had any problems playing 1080p stuff and that also includes down mixing DTS audio to stereo on my Pi
