Thank you Marc and Jörn for your responses. Plenty of food for thought. I needed a quick solution and what worked for me in the end with the Raspberry Pi was VLC player (compiled with HW acceleration) connecting via JACK to my USB soundcard. The next time I will try mpv.
Jörn, are there any particular decoders you can recommend that would work via JACK?
