Advice Now TV

£9.99 for one of these but did you know you can install Plex on them (if you like the pile of shit) and have a fully blown media streamer? You do have to register which means entering your details but meh, who cares.

So you're promoting Plex now? I knew you'd come around.

Only thing with those now TV boxes, unless they've changed them recently, they only output 720p.

Its ten quid for something that will do all your streaming, the equivalent Roku box is £40 I think.

I just put it out there because I'm all about promoting Plex......

I have one of those now tv boxes. I didnt install Plex though as I never got it to work properly with my NAS (and I paid for Plex ) . For the money, the hockey puck is great value = we have ours in the bedroom on a fairly small 1080p telly. The wife watches endless reruns of grey's anatomy on it.

Heres a tip. If you go for it, try cancelling on line after a little while. When I did this it gave me a range of offers to get me to stay. Ended up with half price movies for 3 months.

Yes, yes you are.

Also these are actually just excellent little boxes if you want something for catch up TV for the main 5 channels. They're also perfect if you want that sort of functionality for an elder relative as they've got a remote which makes the learning curve easier.
