I'm using two of those without issues though a USB hub attached to the Vero 
DVD/Blurays/UHD?
Yes/yes/yes Smile

thanks

Last one I had died, so the new one seems to be great after a couple months: TP Link UH720

Hubs work fine on it. Just make sure you use a powered one.

Price drop on vero 4k for the bank holiday too!

Any owners / users of osmc+vero4k+: does this support 1080P120/1080P100 output?  Is it the same steps/easy to add a custom advancedsettings.xml file?  Also, I currently have some older atom-based zotac machines w/ 8GB of ram and they can chug when navigating through my library, how is the performance with this having 2GB ram?

Not yet -- but it's something we could add if there was a request for it.

Ah too bad... I guess my case is odd, since I have an oled that has fun 'smeary' effect if I don't feed it a 120/119.88Hz signal on 24/23.976fps material.  Does it not read the edid and just use standard VESA-CVT timings?  I currently have different machines do custom modelines or a file-based edid for mine, and IFIIRC osmc is some kind of bsd variant?  Not sure how it works in that regard.

We parse the EDID for a list of supported modes
But we only handle modes that we know how to support.

We have some preliminary patches to support this.
If you'd like I can give you a ping when this is supported.

Yes -- you can use that add-on. A few skins depend on it automatically.
