  • Does Kodi support HDR passthrough using an x86 processor or an nvidia/AMD dGPU on Linux now?
    Its all good. I use to run Kodi on a HTPC that I built with openelec and it was pretty stable. I am not sure if it is available anymore (openelec.tv) it was a linux distro. I switched to NVidia shield due to the accessibility to Netflix and Amazon and I have not looked back. Oh an its cheaper than a HTPC I think... Source: about 2 years ago
  • Got Jellyfin a few days ago and LOVE the web version, but bad Roku app is a dealbreaker. Before I can it, are there any work arounds you guys have found?
    I know there are various customized distros for the RasPi, such as OpenElec, but as a staunch Linux and FLOSS advocate I still don't think that's what most people are searching for when they look for a streaming device these days. Source: about 3 years ago

    Universal Media Server actually used to be PS3 media server. Another option is Logitech Media Server. With either of them you'll be able to add both folders and stream them to your playstation. Source: over 1 year ago
  • What's the easiest to use music streamer that runs natively on Mac?
    Also, have you looked at squeezebox? It is the foundation of a ton of programs and and will run on a mac. Source: about 2 years ago
