Hello,
i have read the "Start here"-Thread and got some nice tips there, but i am still not sure which 2 boxes I want / need. I need 2 boxes with two different requirements, i just list them and hope someone can help me.
1.) I have a FireTV (1st Generation) and running Kodi, Netflix, Amazon Video and Youtube on it. I primarly use it to send Youtube links to it, so they can be played one after another. I regularly watch Netflix on it and sometimes Amazon Video. I want to get rid of my AFTV, because i am looking for a Box with a 3.5 mm jack connector(!) to connect it to a 2.1 active sound system. Right now it is connected via optical to a Decoderstation, but i have a 1-2 seconds delay everytime I start a video and i have tried everything(!) to get rid of it, but without any success. The components are ok, i have changed them and tested really everything. With this change i hope to get this problem out of the way and can change this old AFTV.
But enough with that, these are the requirements for my first box:
Xiaomi 4K HDR 'Mi Box' https://goo.gl/uhCo1T
R-TV BOX S10 https://goo.gl/xJXvd2
MECOOL M8S PRO PLUS Amlogic S905X https://goo.gl/wb7jAc

But enough with that, these are the requirements for my first box:
- 3.5 mm jack connector for audio (2.1 and/or 5.1 possible?)
- Netflix (1080p)
- Amazon Video (as far as i understand it, this app is in the appstore available again but doesnt work in 1080p everytime)
- Kodi (of course)
- 1080p (4k nice, but not really needed)
- HEVC 265
- no 3D
- Bluetooth would be nice
- max. 80 Euro (even though a Vero4k is very nice)

2.) The other Box need:
- good/reliable Wlan (AFTV was/is good enough)
- no problems with attaching a HDD with 3 TB at it (ATFV didnt like that all the time and just didnt recognize the HDD or didnt show it in Kodi)
- good / easy remote, like the one from AFTV (small and simple, not too much buttons. Tbh only right, left, up, down and "ok" is needed)
- very important: the Box needs to boot directly into Kodi and you cant switch out of like with a home button like with the AFTV
- max 60 Euro
- no Netflix needed
- no Amazon Video needed
