But I think that has even less RAM than the Boxee. I also have an AppleTV2 flashed with Kodi. So this stuttering is why I think maybe a new device is in order. So, why use Kodi at all? Just a better interface and also I find there are occassions (DTS films, less conventional codecs, very high bitrate HD video) when the Boxee struggles to play, scan forward and backward, and stay in sync. The videos play fine on the PC, fine on the laptop that's connected to the network, fine even through the Boxee running just BoxeeHacks. It doesn't drop out, it just feels like there's a constant delayed stutter. The audio is slightly out of sync but barely detectable, but the video is choppy. The thing is that I DO have Kodi running on my Boxee right now but I seem to have an issue with some videos stuttering.

So, I guess with the Fire or even with the Chromebox, there won't be ANY live subtitle download support without installing Kodi and using a plugin, right? (anyone know of an HDMI to HDMI/optical adapter? Does that even exist?)Ĭlick to expand.Thanks for the great recommendations! Unless I'm looking at the wrong devices, the ASUS Chromebox and RaspberryPi2 have no optical audio out. I'd use my perfectly wonderful laptop with HDMI out, but again, not having HDMI inputs on my Yamaha HTR-6030 receiver, I can't get the 5.1 audio out of the laptop.
Having said that (if anyone can help with suggestions) with no HDMI inputs on my 5.1 receiver, I need something with optical audio, HDMI output, ethernet for access to my home network, and ideally USB 3.0 for my external HDDs for better data read rates.
Just not our viewing habits in our apartment. So having netflix, hulu, vudu, etc etc etc or apps like Youtube is something I'll never ever use. I only watch disks and digital video files that I store on my main desktop HDDs and external HDDs. I don't stream films or television shows. I need something like my current Boxee which basically puts a GUI on my network folders on my computer and nothing else. Clearly that's where the industry is but that's an issue for me. I dig around online and it appears that EVERY media device out there is about streaming. Thank you for ANY suggestions in advance.
