I am pretty sure it was the 2820 only. The issue was actually a hardware problem, the updated one actually replaced the processor itself. Ironic given that the later series was produced in part to overcome an issue in Video playback with the older ones that I have.

Doubly ironic as I have tried very hard to replicate the problem on my old "ivy Bridge/sandy bridge" units without success. They are supposed not to play 24Hz content properly, stuttering every so often as they literally play at 24Hz and the real frame rate is 23.something so they drop a frame now and again to keep things in sync. I am pretty fussy and I can't pick it.

I know XBMC video is outside the scope of what you are doing and reviewing, but possibly not for me whenever I finally get to build an obs. I plan to put a PC in there which I would multi purpose for light astro work, net browsing and probably music/video via XBMC (Cheesy Sci Fi for the imaging nights with a friend where looking at his laptop continuously trashes my dark adaptation anyway)
