Lot of android box with popular soc nvidia/amlogic/hisilicon/realtek support Android Media Player for function like: autoswitch fps, HD audio Passthrough and video engine.
Lot of popular media center APP support Android MediaPlayer like: Plex, MX player , Archos video Player.

so… i am thinking about : why kodi not support Android MediaPlayer ? or better …..why kodi support both Android MediaPlayer and MediaCodec?
I suppose MediaCodec is right interface for media center , but Android MediaPlayer is more popular and with less issue about ANdroid SDK/ firmware implementation.
but maybe i’m in wrong.. 
Thanks.
