I know the shield works great with plex, I use one on my main tv. But I dont need that much for my bedroom tv. All I need is something with good wifi, or a (preferably over 100mbps) ethernet jack, that can pass dolby digital or dts 5.1 to my tv which will then send it over toslink to my old 2004 avr in the bedroom. Also needs to be able to play 4k remuxes, but most of mine top out around 60mbps so yeah. If I *needed* lossless audio sure id get a shield but this avr only supports 5.1 lossy or 2.0pcm
I just am not sure what to do that costs less than a shield.
New Chromecast with an ethernet adapter?
