Hi Everyone,
I’m looking for a media player and I’m getting a little lost between the above two players.
I want to be able to connect it to a NAS and for it to play X265 files. Well mainly X264 files but I think X265 is becoming more common so I want to make sure it’s future proofed.
I don’t have a 4k TV so that isn’t an issue for me. I’m also not going to be ripping blu rays so I don’t need to play blu ray menus.
I’ve read the build quality of the Dune Solo is a little better but the Nvidia Shield has kodi (which I don’t currently use but it’s an added benefit I might end up using).
I don’t know if I need the dune or if the fact that I don’t need 4k or blu ray means I won’t benefit from having the dune over Nvidia Shield.
Cost isn’t really an issue, just want the best kit for my situation. Also I want to make sure it’s reliable, there are so many cheap knock off media players out there – I want something that is quality and will last.
Can anyone share their thoughts?
Many thanks in advance to anyone who replies.
Cheers
