I have a kinda specific question: Should I go android or Raspberry Pi2 for a box that has the following features:
I don't care about:
I have a Nexus Player sitting in shrinkwrap. Got it for $50 but it would need something like a OTG USB hub plus a USB sound card to get me the features above. Finding a compatible USB soundcard and rooting/modifying the Nexus seems like it would be a headache. Maybe this one would work? I'm also not sure if it auto switches to 24p mode or even supports 24p out of the box.
I know about the Wetek Core but I'm not sure about the analog audio out or when the thing will ever be available. It's also kind of pricey. If the MK808b Plus worked with the Turtle Beach soundcard, that might be a solution.
- Ability to play 10gb+ MKVs off USB easily
- SPDIF out (coax digital audio would be a bonus)
- analog audio out (either 3.5 or RCA)
- 23.976 playback
- semi portable
- cheap
I don't care about:
- 4K
- streaming services (although I wouldn't turn them down)
- HD audio
