I have lined up a 50 ft cable for my new Tx3 mini

FYI...
i was playing and testing the two models over the weekend - for audio capabilities with my home theater.
i was "shocked" to find the tx3mini CAN do HD audio - dtshdma and ddtruehd!
but not the tx5max.
these two models come with "tv center" which is basically kodi.
if u do not want the build like me, just uninstall it, install official kodi 18.1.
kodi is probably the best player for playback; vlc and mx not so good, can't even do dts/dd.
tx3mini can pass through dtshdma, ddtruehd.
it playback quite well the smaller files but starts to get rough with bigger ones.
it can even hang if u rush it with rewind, fforward, subs changes.
tx5max cannot pass through dtshdma, ddtreuhd but can do dd/dd+/dts.
it playback very well the smaller files and reasonably well the larger/complex ones.
better choice if u r into playback of big size videos like 4khdr, hd audio although it will just do the core dd/dts.
