I want to play 4k UHD HDR10 movies on the projector over the LAN network (Gigabit eth) from my NAS and I think I found a perfect device - ROCK64 MB  however a strong competitor is a ready product - chinese TV Box with a touch remote so tell me does this beautiful board support 4k HDR10 already with a nice Android/Linux OS and I can configure everything in a few hours or it's like still under development and beta status?

I know Linux and IT stuff enough to run commands and handle configuration but I want to avoid situation that there is no stable OS, missing drivers and I will spend weeks to setup everything. Also which OS do you recommend as "smart TV" OS? I guess I need something similar that popular TV boxes has (based on Android) or maybe just any OS with Kodi or Plex? All comments welcomed before I buy one thanks

OK. Correct me if I'm wrong but to me it sounds like it doesn't really work at the moment and I can't get what I need with this board actually so seems I have to buy TV Box with HDR support.

I would name it as a bridge between NAS and projector and do not need sexy UI and fancy features - just click and play.

So final one - should I buy this board or TV Box is a better solution? That device probably has a better support for 4k multimedia but 2-3x more expensive and still I do not need all these features.

tl and luke can probably answer this better as I'm not interested in 4k/HDR atm. I just wanted to point out that luke said earlier that (1) Stock android supports HDR in RKMC.  and (2) LibreELEC is working on implementing HDR in their releases. Since the board does support 4k natively, it sounds like you have one option for software that is operational right now, and a second option is being worked on so should hopefully be available soon. For the best video performance, you'll want Android atm anyway, so with the right apps installed, it should work just fine.
