I was wondering how you use kodi with this remote and I'm surprised there is no Ir receiver. I bought one at best buy for 60 but beginning to think it is a waste of time and it is best to stick with an HTPC.

Yea I can't justify paying that much for an android device. I see you can add Ir by using mini USB or something like that.
I just picked up a nexus and impressed with the speed. Kodi is just as smooth as on my i3 PC and it works with the TV remote.

This device is useless because it cannot pass DTS audio to the receiver. AC3 works but not DTS. It isn't even doing DD with Netflix. I will just stick with the roku and my pc.

What software is on the nexus player? I updated to 5.1.1 and it does not work. I think it worked in 5.1 but not sure.

Hey guys,
I have a read a bit through this thread. I've been having the issues that no matter what app I use (kodi, VLC, etc), I get heaps of buffering when playing 720p MKV files (not even trying 1080). I'm on Wifi N and was thinking of upgrading to an AC router to help with this. Has anyone got a Nexus player running on AC and do you have any issues streaming local content such as 720 / 1080 MKV? Just trying to decide to spend the money or not :-S
Thanks,
Brandan
