    The speeds achieved are sad to say the least


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Openelec and osmc get updated from time to time and sometimes they include some new or updated drivers which should speed things up a little bit but the problem is that usually no one updates the linux drivers they come as is and thats it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    These teams usually dont have either time or knowledgeexperience to fix these drivers
