DietPi

I'm not a developer member of dietpi, but I also had an odroid xu4 like you. My experience was that odroid not the best at hardware decodeing movies (h264), and usually made it from CPU power, which is not ideal for noise less homecinema experience. For suggestion I could offer you to check out this...

Hi I love dietpi systems, and now on my new nas/htpc x86 machine i've tried to install kodi with enabled hardver acceleration. At the and it still make the fulHD movie decodeing with cpu, but i have installed xfce + kodi, and even mesa and radeon stuffs and in kodi i can see the options for vdpau ac...

Ok i heard about the kernel limitation in topic of samba transfer speed. But how could it be tricked out with open media vault ? That also use Debian so probably it's the same kernel and others. I really appreciate your work with dietpi it's a huge and fantastic project, I'm just don't understand wh...

Hey Guys! I have just ordered my odroid xu4 from hardkernel, and paid the half of the original price of the product to taxes, but now the XU4 is in my room. Firstly with dietpi i can't reach the advertised (on the hardkernel site) 110 Mb/s read speed and 60 Mb/s write speed with samba on a gigabit n...

Thanks a lot ! I'm just read the config file instructions and it's looked like I should use these prefixes. Maybe if you have some time, in a future update, don't you wanna change the config file description to the working prefixes ? With the change of that you wouldn't get these idiot questions lik...

Hey! I had a really good config on raspberry pi 3 a years ago, with working minidlna on it. And after somethings I decided to reinstal it from the begining. And everythings went good except the instalation/configuration of minidlna. After a few tries i left it, i thought the repo contains somekind o...

Ok then I again prefer Odroid XU4. But I really want one device for every task (NAS & Kodi ). We know that XU4 perfect NAS, is it good at usual video formats playing in kodi ? For example 1080p mkv, and SD quality xvid/mp4 ? Beacause I like the XU4 super fast data speed :) and don't want to buy ...

I checked Orange pi plus 2. And that is also seems to be quite good for my purposes. It has sata and it offers hardware decoding for movies, and it's an other point but also a bit cheaper. What about that ? Or should I choose XU4 ? The 2 most important part for me in a single board computer is the d...

Can you answer for me an other question?
Odroid XU4 media player capabilities are good enough in comparison with a raspberry pi 3 ?
I mean it like does it play fullhd mkv, or simple xvid? On a fullhd tv screen of course.

It's a great news !
Maybe if I attach a low speed driven, but always on fan, I can keep it cool.
Now my raspberry pi 3 also got a fan witch is always on (12V pc cooler, under volted to 3 V ), and it's running so cold 30-38 C°, and i love it in this way!
