Should I get (NVidia Shield + HDHomeRun) OR (Skystream ONE)?

I've been mostly out of the picture for several years, so I need to catch up!

My requirements (deal breaker if I can't have ALL of those):

  • All the classic Android apps (Google Play, VUDU, Amazon, etc)
  • ATSC Channels
  • Local media streaming, including files sitting on some network drives (SMB)
I don't really need 4K or DVR ability for now...

Here are the 2 solutions I think I found:

1) nVidia Shield + HDHomeRun CONNECT
+ Has 2 ATSC tuners
+ Ability to view the ATSC channels on my PCs (DLNA streaming with the HDHomeRun CONNECT, but is the Shield able to play DLNA? Or would I have to get a HDHomeRun EXTEND instead of the CONNECT?)
+ Ability to act as a real media server (flex on the Shield)
- Cost would be at least $300 ($200 for the Shield + $100 for the HDHomeRun), way more if I get the Shield Pro and/or if I need the HDHomeRun EXTEND

2) Skystream ONE
+ Cost is $150
- Has only 1 ATSC tuner
- Can only view the ATSC channels on the TV connected to the box (or would the SkyStram be able to stream the ATSC channels to, say, a PC?)

What do you think?
Am I right in my assumptions?
Are there other better solutions?
If not, what other plus/minus am I missing in those 2 options?

Thanks

Audio playlist creation issues

Hi,

I'm using Krypton beta on Ubuntu 16.04 via unstable PPA. My main usage is music playback.

I've discovered 2 issues with playlists created from various songs from different albums:

1. Songs which have special characters in filenames are added without these characters. For example song "01. Ol’ ’55.flac" is added as "01. Ol 55.flac". So no way to play such songs from playlist.

2. Songs from different albums are added with their original index/track numbers from albums. When you try to play such playlist from TV interface it plays in correct order (oroginal order o songs from m3u file) but when you try to play it from any remote songs are mixed-up - sorted according to track numbers from original albums (i've tried Yatse and official Kodi remote for iOS).
