Hello everyone,

I'm planning to set up Kodi on a mini PC, but I'm unsure which hardware to choose, such as a Minisforum or an Intel NUC and which once. I have a very large library of movies and shows on Jellyfin, and I'd like to use Kodi with one of the two Jellyfin plugins to stream content from Jellyfin to the Kodi box.

I tried Jellyfin for WebOS 4, but unfortunately, it has many limitations regarding codecs. My library mainly consists of REMUX files. The box needs to be able to play 4K, Dolby TrueHD, Atmos, etc. Additionally, I'd prefer it to be somewhat future-proof.

Apart from that, I will connect the Kodi box directly to an Arcam AVR31 so I can pass on the Dolby audio to it.

That is very promising!! I checked the spec on the minisforum page but it did not list 8K only 4K 60hz with HDMI 2.0 not 2.1.
