spec me a player for a not so total noob

Evening all, first time on here forums so firstly thanks.Big Grin

I currently run Kodi from my main pc but its killing to much electric and hours on my pc, I also dont have enough spare cash to build a home theatre and I already have nas box.
Im looking for a "kodi box" like the wetek or minix that ive had a quick read about on the top of hardware list, but when it comes to these sorts of boxes I have no idea Confused which is going to be reliable or worth buying.

I stream everything from my synology ds1216j so would like to it work with that.

I'd say I have around £100 or so to play with so please be kind and spec me a player!

many thanks

Ali

Within VLC navigation is working fine.The described behaviour is common to all kodi version i tried: latest V18 build from milhouse, older V17 builds from milhouse, official V17 libreelec, KODI V17 on windows, libreelec V17 on windows and raspberry. Thats why i believe it has something to do with the new videplayer or am i wrong?
