Yes i am playing the video directly from the pi itself, internal storage

I do not want to just change the launcher, i do not want to use android at all :D

Indeed i considered that but, they consume too much and do too much noise i would had gone in that direction if i had one of those already laying around though :)

I looked into those they are affordable even though a bit old, but i got the impression they only played 4k video properly on androidTV and that is something i do not want to run, on and this live test really threw me off. But it is a 3 year old video, drivers and software might worked some magic along the way like corelecc which was a novelty to me, thanks for the hint

I highly doubt that, it hardly plays a 4k video from internal storage, and it does 1080 barely

NucBox G3 is above budget and Orange Pi does not do 4k

This looks awesome, and pretty :D but unfortunately it seems to struggle at 1080

The specs seem nice but i can not find a benchmark/test on 4k around to see it actually playing 4k media, i will keep this on the lookout as well, thank you

Thanks this is interesting, it really breaks the 100€ mark but i will be on the lookout with this one, wonder how they EU shipment would work though

It has the bootloader locked and it is androidTV only
