I am mostly using Navi-x and SALTS now. I did notice Genesis getting worse and worse with the streams and have slowly stopped using it.

So here is something not so fun about Genesis next month. Real-Debrid will be changing their login API next month. So unless Genesis gets update, those links will not work on there either.
To get around this, you can use Kinkin's addon that will bring up multiple add ons links for which ever addon you are browsing. I havnt used it, on paper it looks brilliant. http://www.koditips.com/new-my-subsc...add-on-kinkin/ |

CartoonHD through the chromecast is still very reliable and so I still have that as an option.
For Kodi, I did get a Firestick a while ago and installed it. Worked great with the Beast build until Genesis started crapping out. I ended up installing the Spinztv build. 1Channel and Salts generally work just fine for me, prefer Salts currently because there is a little rating next to some streams on their reliability. I wouldn't have even gone with Kodi because Cartoon HD is so easy but the LiveTV and streaming of Chiefs games through SportsDevil is why I keep it up. Plus there are occasionally some shows that CartoonHD doesn't have, Kodi has everything. Here's how you install Spinz if anyone is interested. For the Firestick, be prepared that it will sometimes need to update some things on it's own and may need to be restarted here and there if it does that. Generally once the updates are done it works fine. If something locks, just hold the middle select button and the play button at the same time and it'll reboot for you. |

If you want complete customizability, there are piles and piles of cheap Android boxes available. You can get a nice box with an Amlogic S812 quad core chip(best available right now in Android boxes), Android 5.1, 8-16GB storage, 2GB RAM, Gigabit ethernet, dual channel wifi, HDMI, 4K capable, optical out, SD card, remote, etc. Anywhere from $50-100. But most come preconfigured with bloatware and junk you'll never use, so if you go that route prepare to erase the device and start from scratch, and it's likely going to take a great deal of tinkering to configure and maintain. Here's an example: http://www.amazon.com/Zenoplige-Amlo.../dp/B015CRM4JA You can search the Related Items on that Amazon page to view a bunch more. Many of those will have slightly better hardware/connectivity than FireTV2. But like I said they will require more hands on configuration. If you want to step up from that and plan to do more than just movies/TV, I would recommend the NVidia Shield. It's $150, but allows for gaming and more. A step up from that would be an Intel NUC. A PC in a tiny box. But that's getting up ~$400-700. Best possible performance though. |

Thoughts on one of these as a high end option?

Protip: There's a KODI plugin called KeyMap Editor. You load this plugin within KODI, and it allows you to map/remap any keys on the remote controller. So you can change the button you accidentally keep hitting so it doesn't do that annoying behavior anymore. You can also change the function of any buttons you're not happy about. You can adjust global button settings, or behaviors for just fullscreen video, OSD menu, etc. http://kodi.wiki/view/Add-on:Keymap_Editor |
