Doesn’t have to be super fast, just able to run the game adequately and pair via BT for controllable/power/cadence. I am in need of buying multiple to use at the same time - so I’m being cost conscious. Thx

Thanks, I did see that, but with an unofficial port of omnirom (who knows how solid the port is) it’s a bit of work in progress. If that ever gets shored up, definitely could be a good option at some point and not too pricy. Also a number of people were having issues getting it working, so there co…

I have to admit although it worked for me, the performance wasn’t great (I don’t think I ever tried a race on it) and other people had trouble getting it working. Plus I had to give my loan KICKR back and so just went back to the good’ol outdoors :smiley: The annoying thing is, unlike what some peo…

Cool, you still lurk here, thanks for the reply, and nice work at least getting it working! I suspect it’s a OS driver/opengl es efficiency issue, the port you were using probably wasn’t optimized for that chip. It is unlikely that Zwift is writing code that is specific to hardware, considering the…

I’m using an old, cracked screen Samsung S8 I have had lying around. I’m using ANT+ to connect the devices though, but BT shouldn’t be an issue either. It’s connected to a TV using a USB-C → HDMI dongle that allow simultaneous charging. Not super fast, not particularly pretty but a cheap option. Wi…

Interesting idea - essentially using an old phone as a dedicated streaming stick/box. First glance shows S8’s are still around 150+, hmmm

Still haven’t pulled the trigger on anything, but jut ran into this: [image] <a href="https://usa.banggood.com/HK1-R1-RK3318-4GB-RAM-128GB-ROM-5G-WIFI-bluetooth-4_0-Android-10_0-4K-at-60fps-VP9-H_265-TV-Box-p-1650005.html?imageAb=1&utm_design=18&cur_warehouse=CN&utm_source=emarsys&utm_medium=Mail_21Springsale23_value&utm_campaign=newsletteremarsys&utm_content=leander&sc_src=email_4787602&sc_eh=911634bcd71aac501&sc_llid=153136&sc_lid=204149083&sc_uid=8LT8uK46aD&akmClientCountry=America&a=1661467131.0666&akmClientCountry=America" target="_blank" rel="noopener nofollow ugc">HK1 R1 RK3318 4GB RAM 128GB ROM 5G WIFI bluetooth 4.0 Android 10.0 4K@60fps...

I don’t think it will be supported on many android TVs/sticks/boxes. depending on your budget you’re probably better off getting a used PC from ebay or something

It doesn’t have to be ‘supported’, a lot of these hacks aren’t. Doesn’t have to be perfect, either. Looking for a couple additional cheap zwift solutions, have extra monitors.

Problem is the GPUs on these boxes aren’t strong enough for a proper 3D game. That’s why the Nvidia Shield is still considered the best in the class, despite being basically ancient. At which point you might as well buy an Apple TV 4K for proper support.
