Wake me up for New Nvidia Shield Hardware for Blu-ray 8K and we need to stream 1000Mbps files.
ps: Sorry about the text size, some of you might miss it
Heres true story:
I bought the Linksys EA9500 and that expensive thing has the latest and fastest hardware networking for consumer, it might take a few years to all my gadgets support MU-MIMO (up to 8 devices ) until there, im not taking advantage of its price/performance, except im using their Seamless Roaming technology using the other expensive Linksys RE7000 extender.
The New Shield would justify to have their Hardware upgraded only if they implement Dolby Vision.

Check posts #286 for a 280Mbps L5.2 AVC clip, #690 for 100/200/300Mbps HEVC clips, #964 for 127Mbps HEVC main10 clip, #981 for a 1000Mbps HEVC main10 clip. All of them are 4K 50fps.
Kodi on SATV struggles only with the 1000Mbps clip. Interestingly, Kodi didn't even open this clip from SATV's internal flash, but it opened the clip from an external USB 3.0 SSD. The native Android video player cannot open anything above 100Mbps. I also couldn't get any of the videos to play from my NAS that is on a gigabit network. That was strange.
