Multi-Use Home Theater - neroignis - 03-01-2018 Hello! So i just ordered my first ROCK64 (4GB Version) and wondered, if anyone help me with the following problem: I want to replace my current RasPi3B with the ROCK64 for the following tasks: Hosting my Plex Media Server Playing games via EmulationStation Watch Videos via Plex/Netflix/maybe YouTube So i know that there is OpenPlexHomeTheather for the Plex-part and EmulationStation and the emulators run pretty good even on a RasPi, but i'd like to combine all of them in one interface that should be controllable via CEC- or USB-Wireless-Remote and also with a Xbox360-Controller (for the gaming-part). My first thought was Kodi, but i don't really know much about it. Will Kodi work for this case or do i need something else? Thanks!
