Only box I have have found that runs everything I throw at, NZ and offshore streaming sites is a Mac mini.

IcI:

 

Saw the AirTV mentioned on Uncrate.com today. That looks like a nice package that the wife & kids could handle. It would require the OTA USB adapter for FreeView. I'd really be interested to see how this works in NZ with our EPG.

 

 

It would be more than just the EPG - the OTA USB would have to actually work with our frequencies and the box should be able to decode the streams properly. Not sure this would work here.

reven: I just got the Xiaomi USB network adapter. So in running them through cat6 instead of wifi

 

Just wondering, would any network adaptor work with the Mi Box or is it just the Xiaomi one ?

 

And if it is just the Xiaomi one, where did you manage to get it from (can't seem to find it here in NZ) ?

Thanks @Blanch.

 

I just saw this whole discussion about the Mi box: Forums › HTPC › Mibox 4k
