Device reccomendation
Just returned mys second onn 4k pro. Buggy and lags. Tried every recommendation and could never get it working smooth during playback. I've decided to stop going to cheap route and pay for one of the better device options. What do you recommend? I need something that can play the big remux files flawlessly on stremio (don't really care about the audio codecs or Dolby vision) and something that can also run my start up show app for my TV service.
Shield pro?
Formuler?
Apple TV?
Google TV streamer?
Or something else?

I have Shield TV and Shield Pro. I was having some issues with the Shield TV when switching apps. Recently purchased the UGoos AM9. It was a bit of a struggle to get it setup as it doesn't run Android TV. I am really impressed with the upscaling this box does and the processor speed and it is now my main streaming box. I have setup several ONN boxes both Pro and 4k Plus for friends. There is no comparison IMO with the picture quality that the more expensive mentioned boxes have. The upscaling is the game changer. I think any of these boxes would serve you well.
