This is my current setup... The TV is 85" TCL T7E 144hz VRR & ALLM gaming TV powered by Ugoos X4 Plus running on CoreElec. Amp is Denon X2500 driving 7.2 channel Dolby Atmos setting with front speakers by Hivi Swans. The atmos speakers is my DIY upward firing Atmos speakers. I use dual subwoofer with 1 unit SVS PC12 Plus and a DIY 15" seal sub with Dayton Audio UM15-22. Surround is Wharfadale surround.

QUOTE(minano0001 @ Nov 6 2022, 10:03 AM) Nice setup. Your corelec can decode Atmos? Ever since I discovered CoreElec, I'm fully converted to CE. I used to run Kodi on Android but it's no match for CoreElec. CE can pass through all the HD audio format including Dolby True HD Atmos and DTS-X. It also support auto frame rate switching.  CE with RealDebrid is the best solution from streaming. With my 300mb unifi, I can stream full blu-ray movies up to 100gb filesize smoothly. |

QUOTE(minano0001 @ Nov 6 2022, 02:24 PM) Used to run librelec then I built a Plex server and ever since been running plex off the tvs native app Plex still need to download the mkv and setup your server. Too troublesome. I can't be bothered to keep updating the apps looking for latest seeds With CE there is no more download. Stream everything direct. Like I said I can stream 100gb files easily. All you need is Real Debrid account. Real Debrid cost RM70 for 6 months and that work out to RM12 per month. I share with 2 other users and that's RM4 per month. There is no need to update the app at all. It can auto update. Works like a charm. I don't see anything can beat CE at the moment. No need expensive Nvidia shield. With a RM200 android tv box running CE can beat anything out there in terms of performance and convenience. It's the best kept secret! OPPS....I just exposed the secret. If you are a Kodi user and not willing to shell out a few ringgit per mont for Real Debrid , then you are missing out on the best. |

QUOTE(minano0001 @ Nov 6 2022, 08:42 PM) My server not only runs Plex. I backup files and family photos in it with raid. I can access it outside my house with my phone. So it's more of a family server to me. Anyway I have Netflix, svi and Plex for my tv needs no need to run Kodi or real debrid anymore. Thanks for the heads-up Good that Plex works great for you. I have NAS server too which I use it for my cloud storage. They are primarily for Photos backup for my family which works like Google photos. Besides photo, I use it for Flac and DTS music server. I use to buy many HDDs to store my movie collection but stop doing that since I can stream them directly and at bluray quality which is taking too much HDD space. |

QUOTE(SSJBen @ Nov 7 2022, 08:01 PM) I tried CoreElec a long time ago, it is indeed very good. Extremely convenient and I think it's almost as user friendly as Plex (as long as the skin is easy on the eyes for non-tech savvy people). Yes, you're right. There is no DV support yet. Don't think CE will ever see DV support due to licensing so I have to live with other HDR format.The only flaw and really is the only flaw which haven't made me jump ship is support for Dolby Vision passthrough, unless they have changed that recently so correct me if I'm wrong. |
