I don't want to be locked down to Android, the the Google Play Store, and overall lack of broad app support for Android TV. I don't like the android interface on my Galaxy S7 as it is. I have other specific reasons for being Windows only, and will not change my mind lol.Now I understand, if you are going with the Windows route the AsRock Beebox kabyLake (similar to Intel Nuc) should be fine, but you have to put extra work for it to work right, I was waiting for LibreElec (Kodi) to release support for HDR on the Intel X86 Generic platform but it doesn't look like it will be happening anytime soon.
movie78, could you explain why you said to not even consider the Beebox if you want 4k and HDR?
Thanks!
That's is why I decided to sell my AsRock Beebox on eBay.
As @brazen1 stated its much easier on Windows but based on experience I will not be using Kodi on Windows only reason why i was using windows was for @afedchin 3DMVC build.
Too much headache
