I love my Pi4. But not being able to turn it off from a remote, at least not easily, and that LibreELEC has freeze problems on the Pi4 that I have not been able to solve, I was wondering if there is an alternative for an Android TV box that I can purchase. Requirements are Kodi, 4k, HDR, NTFS (USB) capable, and that I can turn off with a remote. Any recommendations? I don't mind buying from Aliexpress, however, I am in Germany currently. Thanks.
Is there any chinese Android box that can handle kodi 4k+hdr? I don't care about Netflix and it seems that op doesn't either.
There are all sorts of AMLogic S905X2 chipset devices that can run 4K HDR CoreELEC Kodi:

Including the MECOOL KM3 and KM9
CoreELEC Kodi is exactly what you want to use for trouble free 4K HDR Kodi with auto switching everything.
Sounds like OP is using the generic and non-specific interpretation of 'android tv box'.
I am inclined to send those jokers to ebay or amazon. Aliexpress is too overwhelming for most.
Current inexpensive devices that are KODI compatible with Netflix certification are:

- Engel EN1015K (it's the Ematic Jetstream version for the Europe market)
