Re: 23.976 in Krypton builds, any idea when this is expected to be supported? If not for a while, I'm thinking of going back to Jarvis builds on my Beelink MiniMXIII.

I've been running a S905X mini m8s II (2G/16G) for about a week now , I got it on promotion at nearly half the price my Mini MX V1 cost me 6 months ago . It runs really well even the 2.4ghz WiFi hasn't given me issues when I've tested it. I haven't managed to notice any issues with having 100meg Ethernet on the mini m8s II vs 1 gig on my mini mx either..

But I stream almost all my content from the internet so the file types and bitrates are not going to be high enough to saturate the 100 meg Ethernet port on the mini m8s II. So really for my use case I can do without 1gig Ethernet. But it would still be nice to have 1gig for future proof and faster LAN file transfers etc.

I can't really complain though at the price point I paid. It's exceeded my expectations. It boots faster than my mini mx v1 as well. Must be the SD card I'm using or maybe faster flash memory..

I'm running Kszaqs LibreElec latest build off SD Card the 32bit user space version that has the fixes for the memory leak in libre Elec. Memory sits at 10% usage 180 meg out of 2gig. Much better than previous 64 bit builds where memory usage would gradually creep up .
