Hi guys, first post..
is there's a real reason to get the ODROID C2 when there's the upcoming WETEK HUB? Both will end up around 100$ (OD with all required accessories and emmc).
Thanks!

ok, just ordered one, although it seems the Hub is a better deal. With the eMMC, case and PS, it's over 100$ including shipping. i'll set it up with Libreelec. I'll probably get the Wetek Hub as well as long as user reports will come in...
Can't resist unfortunately...

I would have said full decoding and video output of DolbyVision HDR if the required DolbyVision hardware was actually in the Hub, along with the required Kernel support.
At the moment DolbyVision 10bit playback is possible even if it is only output as 8-bit Rec. 709 SDR video.
If users are spending decent coin on 10bit HDR displays with DolbyVision support, then the onus really is on them to do their homework and make sure the video playback Hardware has the required DolbyVision decoder chip. You really would have to be dumb not to.

In LibreELEC on the Hub + C2 I've added Koying's Thumbnail cleaner, no idea how much left over junk that removes.
Regardless, just buy a 32GB or 64GB Samsung EVO+ micro SDHC and use LE Kodi on the Hub. It is dual boot after all.

Are we seeing a Hub thread & review coming up soon? Is there one?
