[mythtv-users] Recommendations needed for new FE box

[Scot Kreienkamp]

I third this... I use it with Kodi and Mythtv.  The one thing I learned the
hard way, make sure to allocate enough memory to graphics.  It's adjustable
on the Pi.  That was my biggest problem that took me quite a while to
figure out.  Also I would suggest getting a Flirc or something for remote
control... don't use CEC/Anynet/whatever-the-vendor-names-it control over
HDMI.  I had nothing but problems with it.
