lol, two days ago they released an ODROID N2 2GB + SD CARD + Case + power supply for 80€ or 100 for the 4GB version
question: The 2GB version is enough?
Yes. Optimised Linux (CoreELEC, LibreELEC, OSMC) Kodi is lean and mean - you really only need 1GB RAM for even the highest bitrate video streaming. Plus Gigabit Ethernet.
Quote:I have no USB keyboard or remote. Meaning that I would have to pay an remote with keyboard or remote + keyboard. Which would be +~30€.Very useful to me personally. Entering Kodi text for searches. Quick Kodi Keyboard shortcuts. A bigger remote for Man sized hands.
Is the remote/keyboard recommended?
MINIX A2 lite 8+ months battery life in a 100% reliable, Wireless remote connection is absolutely Gold Class performance with any remote.
Quote:If I don´t take an remote/keyboard is it possible to just SSH to the board without any config directly needed?No
Quote:What´s with the Shield TV or the upcoming Shield Stick.An update of the existing Shield to add a more reliable, sensible remote, DolbyVision(not with Kodi) and better upscaled (720/1080p > 4K) picture output quality mainly.
Shield is for easy to use Android TV Apps + Kodi. It's an Android Nerds wet dream !
Quote:Is the N2 better than it?It is for Kodi - because you can throw anything at a device like CoreELEC running on the N2 and not worry about Kodi not playing it back. With all the auto Frame Rate / auto Resolution / auto Colorspace switching working properly.
CE Kodi is better for Networking as well.
It's really a mini Linux PC that runs 4K HDR / HD audio Kodi very well - better than any Android, FireTV, Intel, AMD - Kodi media player on the market.
