The firmware for this box also runs on the Draco:

The factories seem to be sharing the same generic Kit-Kat build for the a80...After changing dpi, turning off libstagefright, and reducing brightness a tad, video playback is somewhat better than stock Draco.
Sunchip releases frequent updates which can be downloaded from Pan Baidu
(Installs readily via the Phoenix Card method in my previous post.)
After running this for several hours, it still seems somewhat better than stock. Not dramatically better, but noticeably so. I tried 3 1080p videos in XBMC (TVMC) which previously played with evident micro-stutter, and all were more fluid. I think this build has a modified kernel. This Big Buck Bunny link, for example, plays very fluidly in full screen 1080p.
