7/1/2023 0 Comments Kodi on roku 3 2016![]() ![]() Kodi working good, supports a ton more codecs than the fire tv, and roku 3 also I think. I am using Nvidia Shield Tv and I love it. And I have fire sticks in other rooms with kodi sideloaded (they also do netflix, prime, plex and espn3 for soccer) To sum up, I'm using a combo of chromebox (kodi) and roku 3 in the man cave. The new Roku Streaming Stick is a pocket-size device that costs 50 and delivers Netflix, Amazon, Hulu, HBO and all the rest, along with lightning-fast performance and the best search in the biz. It has more codec support and tends to do more direct play which I like, but it has no kodi and the Amazon prime interface is ancient and ugly. If it's snappy with kodi, it might be the best solution for a casual htpc (I don't think anything would replace my chromebox kodi hooked up to a projector with hd surround). I switch to kodi when plex has the wrong or off sync subtitles (kodi's subtitle addons are kicka$$)Įvery once in a while I get tempted to buy the bigger fire tv and give that a try. I use plex more often on the stick as it is much snappier. Entering the movies takes about 15-20 seconds (1500 movies in the library). When I fire up kodi on the stick, it takes about a minute for the widgets to load and weather to update (using either the amber or the mq6 skins). Compared to my chromebox running kodi, everything takes much longer on the stick (this is true for kodi, but netflix and plex work pretty well) I have a couple of fire sticks with kodi on them. ![]() It cant be as good as running Openelec on a dedicated mini PC. I have to test out Kodi on the Fire stick. Works great.Įmbarrassed because my content is so much better than what Netflix or Amazon offers. Why's that? I got a Fire TV just so I could stream a few apps and more importantly so I could side-load Kodi. for Amazon Prime (atrocious selection) and Netflix (which is slightly better), but my media collection and the Kodi interface is so much better than either of those services. I am also embarrassed to admit that I have one Amazon Fire TV stick. ![]()
