Hey Guys,
im new in this community. So I hope, this thread is in the correct categorie as i didnt found something via search.
Currently I'm looking for a simple Set-Top-Box running XBMC to replace my WD-TV-Live.
I'm a little bit confused about all the different vendors and compatibility with xbmc.
So I read about the hardware-acceleration - which isn't given on any hardware, is it?
Is the XBMC-Android-Version which can be installed from the Google-Market able to play 1080p content with hardware-acceleration?
In other words: can i use any android-box which can install apps out of the market to use xbmc or should i look for a 'special xbmc-box' like 'archos tv connect'?
What needs to be paid attention to?
Like I said I only would use the box for XBMC with 1080p and DTS/Dolby to replace my wdtv. A remote instead of a controller (like ouya) or a infrared interface to use it together with my harmony one would be great
Thank you in advance!
