Hey guys,
I've been slowly crawling through the forums and learned so many new things about Kodi which I absolutely love it!!
Before I ask any question, I should mention that I did read the sticky and based on the advice, I ended up buying Nvidia Shield as a Android TV box which I'll use for certified content pretty much along with some games content. Now it seems like given my needs ie free to air tv, HDR content, lightweight and effective system etc, I am thinking of buying another box entirely for kodi use which brings me to my current dilemma. As per the recommendations, Libreelec seems to be sweet spot on either s905x or s912. Money is not issue and I am after a box which can be 'future proof' for a while. I know Vero 4k comes with software support but no ethernet is a let down.
Between Vero 4K and Minix u9h, I cant seem to make my mind based on the following factors:
- I personally prefer the Vero 4k polished software however no ethernet and keyboard remote.
- Compatible USB tuner for Vero 4k and tvheadend
- Minix build seems to be pretty good including the large heat sink, definitely helpful in Australian heat
I personally would like to buy Minix u9h and run Libreelec with USB tuner however LE seems to be buggy and there not many compatible tuners AFAIK.
My first preference is S912 box however LE and USB tuner issues can't be sorted out with bit if tinker then I'll buy a Vero 4k. Alternatively, if there are any other options, please feel to suggest.
Thank in advance and what a great community.
