Wetek Hub or …?

It's time to replace my old Raspberry PI (LibreElec) with a new box.

My main use will be Kodi, but occasionally I want to use it for web browsing, Youtube and Spotify. Maybe Netflix in the future.
I've got a NAS (Synology) and the box can be connected via ethernet.

I'm looking at the Wetek Hub, but wonder if that's a good choice?

Of course I've read some reviews and it seems that the remote is a big disappointment. (The Logitech K400, or something like that, is an option, but that will cost the only usb-port on the Hub, but my files are on a NAS anyway).
I'm also a bit concerned of the 1GB memory, is that enough to run Android and Kodi?

As second I was looking for the Minix U1, higher specs, but also €40 more expensive. So I don't know if that is worth the money.
And it seems that it doesn't support Netflix, if I ever would want to use that.

What are your thoughts and experiences?

Ability to use includes in font.xml

I realize this will likely be a very low priority for most, but thought I'd throw it out there. Would it be possible to add the ability to use includes in font.xml? I have a number of fontsets in my font.xml, and each contains an identical set of font ...

Fire TV or….. ?

Hello. While I am not a cable cutter at this time, I have been using Kodi primary for my kids movies. They have a ton of DVDs and to keep discs from always laying around the house, I put them all on a network drive. I have been using a Fire Stick (not the newest one) and I love the layout of Kodi but the stick lags. The menus are slow and it just seems slow. I read the sticky but am still confused. I think something like the NVIDIA Shield is an overkill for what I am going to use it for and don't want to spend a lot. Would upgrading to the regular Fire TV box make a big difference? Or anything else around that $100 price range any better than the Fire TV? Maybe I will check out the live TV features eventually but for now it is just the movies. I also want a wired ethernet port. Thank you.

TU3-ETG

Hello,

i need some help getting a Trendnet TU3-ETG to work.

I use:
- Raspberry PI model B
- Kodi 17
- TU3-ETG USB to Ethernet Adapter
- NAS WD Sharespace


Kodi works fine without TU3-ETG. The only Problem is streaming large Videos from nas (the integrated ethernet in raspberry is to slow).

So i tried TU3-ETG ... and Kodi seems to recognize the adapter.

Problem:

I can't get files from nas.
Kodi plays all trailers from youtube without any problems using TU3-ETG ... but when i try to connect to my nas using nfs i get no file-listing.

Networksettings in kodi shows IP-Adresse, DNS, ... everthing looks fine.
If i try to connect to my nas using filemanager ... filemanager finds my nas but i can't ... but i only can't navigate folders.

I'm no linux-crack ... so maybe someone can tell me what i can do.

Thanks a lot.

Remux or transcode VC-1 to another file?

I don't really know where to post this so I apologize in advance.. I have a handful of Blu-rays I've ripped with MakeMKV and they are VC-1. With the Wetek Hub using Android or LibrELEC it doesn't like these files at all. So can anyone suggest a Windows...
