START HERE - Pick the Right Kodi Box (updated Dec 2020)
From Post #1, follow the Mi Box link for the review:

Q. I'm a Newbie on a $100 budget using a 1080p TV, I do not need HD Audio and have no audio/video receiver (AVR).
I just want to plug in and power up, and run Kodi with minimal fuss. I don't care about anything else ?
  • Xiaomi Mi Box, mini review HERE
  • WeTek Hub
If you need Kodi refresh rate switching for smooth video playback and HD deinterlacing for TV streams from the HD Homerun (like the Chromebox or RPi) then do not purchase the Xiaomi Mi Box.
It also has a bunch of other other stuff not working and really is targeted at the moment to the Android TV and DRM online Video streaming market, with a bit of limited Kodi use on the side. Normal 10bit (non HDR) 1080p HEVC video for example produces green screens on the Mi Box with any version of Kodi.

The ODROID C2 is a far far more competent pure Kodi Jarvis media player when running LibreELEC. eMMC storage is recommended for a pretty nippy box.
What remote control is being use with the RPi2 ?
