Hi guys,
Just looking for some advice.
I currently have an asus O!Play mini which I use for playing files from my external HDD, these files are many different formats AVI, MOV, MKV, and XVID. It's never let me down.
So I have recently purchased a Roku 3, but this is not compatible with Netflix, and it does not support the file formats I have mentioned above.
I have literally just got rid of my HTPC which was running xbmc, had access to netflix and I was using unblock us to switch netflix regions, due to compatibility issues with the Mrs (a pbkac I believe it's called).
So I'm looking on scrapping all of the above and I'm looking for a single device that can:
Play all of the file types I've listed above
Is able to stream Netflix and also I'll need to be able to change the DNS settings
Is compatible with XBMC - either runs it or is compatible for streaming.
Most importantly though it must have an easy UI and be controlled by a remote.
Or maybe you can see where I can get what I'm after another way let me know!
I realise these are very precise needs for a device but I've spent the last week looking for something, and need help now haha!
Thanks,
