We're using a Roku Ultra box on our main tv. It's not bad - gets the job done. It definitely requires transcode at times though so I was wondering what the current Jellyfin darling is in terms of Direct Play King - save for VC1. I was looking at the Shield Pro but I have to say, at that price point, the remote feels really cheap. Not sure if they're still made this way but I had(long time back) Apple TV and the remote felt great. All aluminum, etc.. I've seen these "Zidoo" boxes on amazon but no idea of their capabilities. Basically we watch YouTube, Amazon Video and stream from our JF server.

Thoughts?
