I'm looking for a box....

by soopahfly82

I'm after a box to run in my van. It has SD Screens at the moment, and a 100v/100w Japanese plug socket. I'm wanting a bluetooth remote so the box can be hidden away, and I'd like to run something like Kodi to access a USB hard drive, or a large capacity MicroSD card.

Gaming would be nice (emulators for example) and It would be nice to have Cast support (Mira/Chrome etc)

I've been looking at the Xiaomi Mi box, as it seems to tick a lot of boxes. Do any of these boxes work without an internet connection for local media?

Thanks!

Mibox would work yes.

Mi box would work, but for gaming, Shield maybe better. Especially for more graphically intense Android games.

I looked at the Shield, but I think it would be wasted for my application. It's USP is the streaming from a PC, but my games PC has an AMD graphics card, so it wouldn't' work.

I've gone for the Mi Box, Can anyone who has one already tell me what the barrel plug dimensions are for the power supply? Also, as I'll be using the AV Output instead of the HDMI, will Netflix work?
