Leading the way I wish to express kudos to the Amazon customer service --- I had my little request sent, I was already angerufen- tip! For device: For streaming content the Amazon Fire TV is beyond any doubt. But as a media player or Retrocase or Daddelkiste .... Ouch ....! Here refills much. Especially the content of the Amazon App_Marktes is extremely limited. Some mandatory since usually free apps you will not find, for example, Kodi, max cathedrals, retro Arch etc. Various apps not even or only partially functioning. although certified for Fire TV. My very first games app "The Great Giana Sisters" was unspielbar- the box may well fail to implement the control. In addition, it switches in between sometimes you up ... why eludes my knowledge. That was much better two years ago the windy Ouya. Consequently, you have many apps cumbersome the Fire Box to the PC via ping console and "Side loaden" by ADP. So far so good- it is only so far not possible to connect more external storage devices to the USB port - there are sticks available up to 128 GB, external hard drives, the Fire TV bends an entirely. So playing large amounts of data such as video collections over 128GB is so far not possible-unless one stores its private videos in the Amazon cloud but please who is so stupid? - Beautiful greeting to Apple! ;) Sorry, anybody can do that cheap media player better. If you have a console such as a PS or Wii U or a HTPC, the Amazon Fire Box will not need because Amazon Prime content playable on these devices Video- even a Raspberry Pi with Kodi and Debian is more flexible by a mile - but you have to just to set up. Personally, I'm torn. In addition, the navigation on the box is a bit confusing, since a constantly recommendations werden.Ein etc. imposed few days I watch the Fire Box to, but if not soon update addresses these shortcomings especially with the USB port, I will they return. It is a complete mystery to me how Amazon can do without such a crucial selling point for the product / wants. For Prime-user who just easily use their contents want a recommendation. But nerds who are hoping for an Android playground here will be disappointed. Under certain circumstances, this remains only the Jailbreak, but that's not possible with the current firmware. Please rework, Amazon!
