A pretty solid choice.So, this Android devices have enough processing power to run HEVC video and maybe some more heavy Kodi UI without a hitch?
Also the 8/10-bit 4K HEVC ODROID C2 is coming along nicely now a whole bunch of features have been added to LibreELEC. (minimal fast Linux OS + Kodi). 5.1 Audio passthrough here. Pretty new device.
Further up the 8/10-bit 4K food chain you have the HEVC capable Android King the nVIDIA Shield.
Depends if you are are loaded with $$ or not.
All three will do HDMI-CEC control.
And... does nVidia Shield also pass through DTS-HD and dolby multichannel HD audio?
I had a Wetek play box for some time but I was not satisfied with UI reponsivness. Everything was kind of laggy. Full HD x264 played fine though...
Thanks.
