  I have a shield connected to a projector through an av receiver. I love the setup for its audio visual fidelity, but I love the simplicity of operation almost as much. The shield remote turns everything on and off and handles all my streaming services + steam link flawlessly. Wonderful user experience.

  Thanks! About 5 hours into a new playthrough of BL2 with my wife, so this is awesome!

  The MakeMKV forums actually have a ton of good info on getting set up to rip 4k. Ripping a 4K copy of Ghostbusters Afterlife that just landed today as we “speak” on my LG WH16NS40 that’s been flashed to think it’s an NS60, courtesy of the MakeMkv folks. I tried a much more expensive Pioneer drive before getting the LG, which went back to Amazon after I discovered it wouldn’t access my inaugural 4K disc - Spiderman: Into the Spiderverse. The LG was less than half the price and has worked great on every disc I’ve thrown at it. I play my rips on my computer to confirm function, but I watch on my projector, which I finally ceiling mounted this summer.

  After years of indifferently having half-set up Plex servers running on various computers in the house I’ve been bitten a bit by the disc acquisition/ ripping bug. Been having a lot of fun scouring eBay for the cheapest/highest res version available of all my favorite movies.
