So, I'm looking for a local media streaming device. I've been using an HTPC and I'm done with it. I just want something quick and dirty. So, please don't suggest anything like a Raspberry Pi. Here's what it needs to be able to do.
Stream media locally from my server in MKV.
Stream YouTube and Netflix.
RJ-45 connection.
An RSS feed manager would be nice.
A nice looking interface that takes advantage of metadata would be really nice.
So far, the only one I can find that meets most of these is WD TV Live. It would do everything except it's interface isn't nice and no metadata. I found some software called MovieSheets+ that does all that but doesn't work for that model.
So, any suggestions. Everything else I've looked at seems to have a lot of issues, or doesn't support the first three things, which are a must.
