Deciding whether the replace my Vero 4k+, which has been doing a good job with HDR and Atmos for years, but really feeling that itch by missing out on Dolby Vision, having watched Dune Part 1 again on my UHD Blu-ray player.

Frustrating that all the options seem to be compromises one way or another.

I tested a generic build but had lots of issues.

any advise would be great, thanks.

What issues did you have??  Almost all of the versions work except the "NO" versions.  Give the 20.5 Nexus stable version a try.

Edit:  That is one of my favorite boxes.  Stays cool and plays everything under CE.  Great purchase for you.

I just ordered Tox3 box. What are the differences in using Kodi on default Android in the box vs installing CE and then using Kodi?

(2024-04-16, 15:48)hdmkv Wrote: Yes, you will be able to. Once you've done so and restarted Kodi, you'll need to go into Kodi settings and make sure or choose the right audio passthrough option is selected (Kodi IEC packer). As FTV has an audio synch firmware bug, you'll also need to copy over the second advancedsettings.xml described here.

Another consideration: while using an USB ethernet adapter with Cube 3 helps significantly with streaming from a NAS or other network share, you'll get the best results with HTTP as opposed to SMB or NFS. If you decide to use this, then you'll need to edit each source, rescan libraries, and also do a clean-up under Settings > Media > Library.

Sharing my FTV advancedsettings.xml and keyboard.xml if they might be helpful.

Hope somebody can offer suggestions/advice.
I currently have a Nvidia Shield TV Pro 2019.
Fine. but keeps freezing (Currently have Super fast internet and have tried changing cache settings so I think it is the Shield) . Any alternatives worth considering in 2024? Looking for something that has access to streaming services like Amazon Prime and Netflix or others but with better performance than the Shield (no freezing, which is probably due to 3GB RAM or processor?).Needs to be connected to TV/AV Receiver so require HDMI connection to receiver and remote control. Local content stored on Synology NAS. 
Any advice? Thinking about micro PC but the have no idea what is best as there seems to be so many choices. UK market, don't want to spend extortionate amount. Happy to consider building from scratch is necessary if it provides future upgradeability.
