It's my birthday, and I want the upscaling, the single platform, the flexibility (sailing the high seas), but it's soooo old. $200? IDK

As far as I know, the pi4 cannot output 10-bit 4k hdr or Dolby vision, which makes it basically a non-starter as a media box.

I also think it struggles with h.264 high bitrate content.

Mine outputs 10bit HDRjust fine even with DV. Takes changing some settings but it's not rocket surgery.
