I posted this elsewhere in the thread, but…AppleTV with the Infuse app.

I tried a bunch of different media boxes and HTPC options over the year. But this is by far the best setup in my experience.

I was kind of afraid that would be the answer. Do you still need a separate Apple device to set it up? I'm not necessarily morally opposed to buying an Apple product, but I am morally opposed to buying two to use one.

No need for other Apple devices. It can act as a standalone box. It may want an AppleID account during setup. I’m unsure about that part.

Interesting. Thanks for the information!
