I'd probably go for an interim, low cost, solution as a stop-gap until the situation has settled down a little bit and the situation with 4K HEVC is clearer. Something like a Raspberry Pi 2 or an ODroid C1+ would be a good suggestion ? The C1+ will also do HEVC 1080p
Thank you, you're right and probably the best solution is to skip 4k HEVC player now. I didn't know that odroid c1+ can play 1080p HEVC, great, I think VP8, am I right? It's necessary the latest kodi alpha for HEVC playing? Or also kodi 15 can play HEVC 1080p? And sorry, another question: do you suggest to install the unofficial openelec, the official ubuntu image or the official archlinux-arm image (I love arch...) to obtain a full hardware accelerated media center?
And what about the odroid xu4? It can hardware decode HEVC @ 1080p?
