It’s my birthday, and I want the upscaling, the single platform, the flexibility (sailing the high seas), but it’s soooo old. $200? IDK

    I have one and it is pretty amazing, but it sucks for Kodi from time to time, usually a reboot fixes all the annoyances… But I don’t like that workaround.

    My unit was downgraded to 8.2.3 and debloated for the sake of a better performance.

      on the flip side, i also dowgraded to 8.2.3 and debloated. i have zero issues with Kodi using PKC with direct play over a wired connection.

        Wait a few weeks without reboot and check again, although usually it does pretty well with PKC, especially if you have light local media.

      It’s probably worth saying that I think the issues with Kodi are down to Kodi itself and not the shield. That is to say you’ll have similar issues on a fire stick or Chromecast 4k or whatever.

      I have up on Kodi after having used it successfully for years on a raspberry pi. I switched to Emby and it has been much more stable.
