OSMC announced new Vero4k, opinions?
Would I be able to get static ip via this on the box? : https://www.noip.com/support/knowledgeba...on-ubuntu/

There's a couple of guides on using Dynamic DNS here:

You can use the NoIP client you have pointed to. Before running make; you would run sudo apt-get install build-essential to install the necessary tools to compile the software you have referenced.

Just wanted to give a "thumbs up" for the Vero 4k+.. Have had it in operation for over a week and I am not disappointed with its performance. 
I am only using it for my extensive library of 1080P movies at this time. It handles both the video and audio formats as advertised.
It is replacing a failing HTPC which is over 10-years old, so I am definitely saving on space, electrical operation cost and a higher HTPC replacement / upgrade cost. I have a 4k FTV stick as well but the Vero handles the various audio and video aspects better. The 4k FTV will stay for for my Amazon Prime viewing..

Great support from Sam as well!

What's the timeline for adding support for MaxCLL and MaxFALL HDR metadata?

Also, does the Vero 4k+ properly play 24bits and higher-than-48kHz FLAC or LPCM audio files? The Shield and all other Android devices are limited to 16bit 48kHz.

Hi,

MaxCLL/MaxFALL: when it's ready. No ETA at this time. 
LPCM: 192/24 is supported. For 2 channels, see this discussion: See https://discourse.osmc.tv/t/can-vero-do-...back/73712

Hope this helps

Hi,

My Vero 4k is hooked up to a panasonic 50 inch tv via HDMI - and audio  is returned via ARC HDMI to an old 5.1 sony audio system.

If I was to plug a broadband dongle into the vero 4k, would I get wireless headphones working?

Thank you

 A broadband dongle would be mobile broadband, I suppose (4G).  Wireless headphones are usually bluetooth which is a different technology.  So no.

If you want Bluetooth audio, you can use the internal adapter and install the A2DP package from the forums

What do you guys suggest for storage and sharing, external drive or gigabit NAS?

Will there be performance issues with the external drive if there is torrenting, playback and sharing at the same time?
Reply
That should be fine. My recommendation is that if you attach external drives, you do not use NTFS. exFAT will give better performance

Thanks for your answer.

I noticed now that by external drive I meant a USB drive vs Ethernet NAS. Smile

I have a Mediasonic ProBox HF2-SU3S2 4 Bay and I am thinking of connecting it to the vero 4k using usb 2.0. Will this work or will I encounter some type of issues?

Thanks

I'm using two of those without issues though a USB hub attached to the Vero
