PHG, thanks for this. No lie, I was in here a while back, looking mournfully at the stale date on this thread, thinking, damn, who is going to step up and summarize all the new stuff that is going on in this space .. I can't possibly nag PHG about it.
So now that you've stepped up, I do have a couple of suggestions
a) It's a little hard to differentiate which categories comprise certain features or not. I wonder if you would consider making some kind of more detailed description line, including the basics, but also, the gotchas - like, no surround passthrough, or native Netflix, ...
b) Maybe a new thread is in order here?
c) The subject is too long, such that replying forces one to delete characters .. just a note
And, I am very interested in OTA in this context. I already have a full whole house setup, but I am considering options for friends and family. Some might prefer or at least like the option of using Netflix, and/or OTA, in addition to local content, and some may want to have the option of passthrough audio. I'd also be interested to know if (which) of these solutions can run as a standalone solution using SB/Sonarr/CP/etc.
I don't think this forum has mentions, but @NedScott, I know you've got some experience with OTA and Android I wonder if you'd pipe up too
Thanks PHG, your work is appreciated
