![]() ![]() Seriously, if the device doesn't support Kodi(XBMC), stay away from it. Don?t forget to install a good web browser, VLC, Netflix, HBO Go, HULU Plus, Kodi(don't forget to grab a good repository that contains TV, movie and music add-ons, I use SuperRep), some decent FPS games, than lay back and enjoy. Going this route will still have same results, especially when you install Kodi for Windows 8.1. If you can't afford the 200 for the Nvidia than look at the Minix Z64, Xiaomi Box 3, Google Nexus or maybe even one of those new Intel Compute Sticks, the X-Strong mini is the exact same thing but about 50 bucks cheaper. I would skip the Apple TV, it's just not as powerful or as fun to use as some of the new Android box?s on the market. Yeah, can you believe that, Crysis 3 with all setting turned on high at 60fps, can?t wait. I'm all set, now where is Crysis 3 like they promised. I even installed a Logitech Cam, external hard drive and bought an extra Nvidia GamePad. Stream Apple’s WWDC keynote You’ll notice an Unable to open the MRU file until the Apple live stream starts. ![]() It's probably the best thing you can add to your TV right now. If you don’t own an Apple device, you can watch WWDC 2015 live stream on Windows or Android using the VLC Media Player. Specs: Nvidia X1 CPU, 256 Core Maxwell GPU, 3GB RAM, 500GB HD (I removed the included HD and installed a 240GB Samsung 840 SSD), SD Card, 2 USB 3.0 ports and a micro USB. Moving forward a little bit, I recently upgraded my Minix to a Nvidia Shield Console and couldn't be happier, their not cheap at 200 bucks for the 16GB model and 300 for the 500GB but worth every penny. Since I live in Switzerland I never really had access to anything but European Channel?s, now I have the entire world to watch and there are some pretty great TV shows out there, I?m actually watching a Vietnamese cop show right now, so cool. Than there was Kodi(XBMC), probably the coolest media app that I have ever used, so much so that I canceled my cable service and used it exclusively. Anyway I was also able to install games, which I have to say is a lot of fun, especially games like Modern Combat 4, 5, Nova 3, Dead Space, etc. Not only could I now surf but install apps as well, something that was also missing from the Apple TV, which I didn?t understand, isn?t it based on iOS. Which turned out to be a great choice, really quick, ample ports, great software. After an exhausted search I decided on the MINIX A8-H Plus. ![]() Something as simple as surfing the net wasn't possible, which drove me nuts as even my TV has a built in web browser, It did however get me interested enough in buying another TV set-box. I used the Apple TV for all about two days before I got frustrated with it's lack of features. It came free with the purchase of my Surface Pro 3, yea, the irony isn't lost on me. ![]()
