Anyone own a Sony 2017 TV and running Kodi on it?
How does it compare to the Shield or MI Box?
Does passthrough work with Android 7.0?

A very informative Review from @CiNcH is worth reading -
The Sony Android TV Experience (2017)
Quote:I've read the article a few days ago while the article is correct but seems a little biasedIt is not biased in any way. I am just a Sony TV owner who got really frustrated and decided to write a review. My heritage is HTPC. So I might have higher demands than most. Sony TV is certainly no replacement for people like me. Sony however even failed on everyday Joe standard things like watching broadcast TV or Amazon Video.
Quote:I bought the Sony 900E and so far it's snappy and responsive with Nought.That was my first impression too. Sony Android TV is like Windows 95/98. It gets slower and less stable every day, the more you use it and want to do with it. Just check out Sony communities. Every second post suggests to perform a factory reset...
Quote:I'm just trying to see if I want to keep it and that decision will be based purely on if I need DV and YouTube VP9.2. What I fail to understand is DV/VP9.2 a hardware, software limitation or both? Since DV is built on the HDR10 I would suspect the TV can and will work with say a Nvidia Shield and the same for YouTube?I don't really understand everything you are just writing or asking here, but these are the facts concerning YouTube HDR and Dolby Vision on a 90E:

I could be wrong but based on my research only the Samsung TVs can output VP9.2 on YouTube. Vizio, Nvidia and LG still use VP9.
