I'm curious to know if anyone uses an Amazon Fire TV box to stream their 4k/2k content?

I can't see a reason why it wouldn't be great, but real-world experiences count for a lot when you're looking to buy things

We need to upgrade our TV so reckoned we may as well go 4K - at the moment my Raspberry Pi-based Kodi player won't cope with flight videos greater than 1080p - it'd be nice to see some of the other recordable resolutions too.

I thought the new Amazon box might be a reasonable solution - I can put Kodi on it and stream flight videos through it..

I do not have an Amazon Fire TV box but I bought a Sony 65" 4K TV a little over a year ago and it includes Android TV. I plug a USB drive (thumb drive or external hard drive) into the side and use the Video app to play my videos. I didn't like any of the streaming solutions at the time so this was a big reason that I bought this TV. I can also connect a computer/laptop to it and play 4K videos from it. Another option is to play 4K videos from my XBOX ONE S with an external hard drive.

Thanks for the feedback - I hadn't considered TVs with Android built-in. That's very useful

Personally , I watch 4k content through my FireStick. I installed SUPREMACY Kodi addon that allows 4K content which is still not very common with most Kodi Video addons.Supremacy offers an incredible library of 4K movies that you can stream in just a few clicks. If you need some recommendations concerning installation, you may find this resource pretty useful https://www.firesticktricks.com/best-kodi-addons.html . By the way,  the majority of 4K Kodi addons bring HD content as well, and Supremacy is no an exception

Honestly saying, watching movies and cartoon series are my favorite time killing machine. Recently, my Dad bought Mi TV along with Firestick but someone suggested me to Jailbreak my firestick device. I found a tutorial on the internet about this experienced that, Firestick jailbreaking is not but it's just installing Kodi on it. I installed Nemesis, Covenant and various cartoon add-ons like Ares Anime, Cartoons8 etc. from the Kodil Repo which offers hundreds of add-ons to watch 4K HD videos on Firestick.

So, Kodil repo is my best friend which offers hundreds of 4K HD movies and TV shows, I found this tutorial useful to you https://firestickhelp.com/kodil-repo-kodi/ because the older method of installing Kodil repo is not working and this is the latest updated tutorial.

Enjoy!

You are missing something, Kodil Repo is down since past few months. I had installed many addons from it but another working Repo went down like Fusion. There is no better addon than Exodus, I have found only one guide where you can get Exodus Repository. You will get more information and Repository there for other addons.

Sometime kodi create problem with firestick that could be the reason off geo restrictions because some ISPs keep blocking kodi and you can't access kodi addons. VPN is there for your help to hide your activities from your ISP and access KODI without restrictions on firestick or any other device. I suggest https://www.bestvpnguru.com to get best vpn to use with KODI.

I am suggesting Amazon Fire TV is the best way to view online content. It also streams 4K content, and has USB connections easy life for all, allowing you to play music and videos directly from any device. These features are missing from Apple TV, which incidentally can't play Amazon video or music. But one important thing that is suggest you must have install Kodi on Firestick thats bring thousand of new movies addon you can see top rated addon here http://mrkodi.com/best-kodi-addons/,  even you can access 4k quality anime online with single clicks

I have the stick and the results are less than stellar. I have heard good things about the Fire TV (not stick) having better results. I'm curious if I can get away with using the 1st gen at a cheaper price than using the 2nd gen, also because I don't need 4k capabilities with my tv? I understand they also upgraded the hardware going into 2nd gen that it would make something like Vue run better, but could I get away with just getting v1?

Yes, the 4K Amazon Fire TV Box (Gen 2) is capable of playing 4K footage. It is designed to support Ultra High Definition (UHD) video playback, which includes 4K resolution at 60 frames per second (fps). This makes it an excellent choice for streaming high-quality video content on a compatible 4K TV or monitor.
