Consumer Technology Roku vs Apple TV vs Fire TV?
Spork3245 replied to Mercury33's topic in The Performing Arts Centre
The Dolby features of STV are so far behind it’s disgusting. No Dolby Vision or Atmos, even with “full uncompressed” audio you still don’t get the surround quality of Atmos. Uncompressed audio means absolutely nothing when the OP is focused on internet streaming and not ripping everything to their PC. ATV can stream MKV files through the VLC app, btw. -

Since when does Shield TV support Dolby Vision? -
The non-Ti 1180 will be faster than the 1080 Ti and likely will cost less... that one is “weeks away”. Why would you get a 1080 Ti when the base 1180 will be better? The 980 was significantly faster than the 780 Ti, the 1080 was significantly faster than the 980 Ti. Until a replacement releases, the 1180 will indeed be the “flagship”, just as the 780 was a flagship, just as the 980 was a flagship. If you’re looking for something to hold you over until an 1180 Ti variant releases (which is an extremely different question) then I’d recommend looking at a second-hand 1070-1080 to hold you over... but the best value proposition is to wait a few weeks and get an 1180 at launch.

I think universal remotes work with it. -

https://www.directvnow.com/appletv Looks like they upped the subscription price and amount, a week ago it was $35/month for the base subscription and you only needed to buy 3 months. Now it's $40/month and 4 months needed. Still, if you're looking to cut the cord and need a good streaming device, $160 is what an Apple TV 4k will run you anyway, plus you're getting to "try out" DTVN. Since movies anywhere is now a thing I don't think you really need to be invested in the Apple ecosystem to justify the ATV, especially since it's the only one that currently has the aforementioned Dolby Vision support. -

The issue with using a Roku or Fire TV/Cube is the lack of Dolby Vision support, which is noticeably superior to HDR10 IMO. If your TV doesn't support DV, then yea, go with a cheaper option.
