I'm looking to get a something to plug in to my TV for streaming jellyfin and streaming games. Criteria:

  1. can play 1080p h264 from jellyfin without transcoding
  2. can stream 1080p 60hz games via steam link / moonlight
  3. low power consumption so it's not a big deal if I leave it on
  4. runs an open OS (raspian etc)
  5. wifi and bluetooth
  6. hdmi output
  7. less than ~150 AUD (100 USD)

Thanks in advance! Any tips around remote control and/or home assistant integration for it would also be welcome.

I have an Odroid c2 as server with a chromecast (with Google TV) as viewer with Kodi. For videos it is stable. It can play 1080p x264 and x265.

The odroid c2 server runs DietPi (based on Debian).

For games I have no idea.. If your interested in odroid, do not pick up the c2 but the successor the c4.
