Hi
I am looking into getting a Xbox One S to serve as a media centre - it seems to have all the streaming apps I'll need, Bluray drive, light gaming and am looking convert my current htpc into a FreeNas server to locally stream my movies/tv shows via Plex or Kodi on the Xbox and to my other streaming boxes (android)
I am finding lots of differing info about it being able to output correct audio 5.1/7.1 from video files and then there is 4K which seems (to me) more confusing.
I will be getting a 4K TV this year and a AVR later which supports 4K also (mine is a Yamaha rxv673 which although says will pass through 4K I don't think it will) - although not for a while yet.
If anyone has got an Xbox One S as a media centre I'd be happy to know of your experience,
thanks.
