i found this forum as im looking for a sub £100 box capable of streaming from my network (wired for preference) obviously i want to use xbmc, with hdmi (full 1080p) and optical (5.1) output not bothered which operating sys i use but would be nice to use my android phone as a remote (its by me when im sat watching the telly and removes the need for another remote)
i guess its a tall ask but hoping for some help here
Minix neo x7 mini is able to fulfill all your requirements. It has rj45, optical audio out for 5.1, it is cheaper than your budget $110 < £100.
Can you share bad reviews about minx neo x7? I also want to know about its bad side if it has any cons. As far as I know, minix neo x5 and x7 is the only android hardware that has optical audio output in the market. If you can find any non-neo android hardware that has optical audio output, please let me know. I am still waiting for the price of minix neo x7 mini drop to buy it. If its price drop to US$50, I will buy 2 minix neo x7 mini.
