RPi2 B+ running Milhouse's OpenELEC Testbuild with Kodi 16 + PseudoTV Live.

Works great, but the interface could be a tiny bit snappier (maybe has to do with image caching or something). The Pi is overclocked (default Turbo settings; don't want to void warranty just yet).

The plan is to eventually buy enough Pi's to use on every TV in the house and to gather enough media to make it worthwhile enough to replace traditional cable/satellite TV (aka cut-the-cord).

The remote is a $50 7" Android tablet from Walmart running Kore (official Kodi remote app) with mostly all other services and apps disabled. Can last a week or two without charge with slight usage and WiFi alway-on.

Pi is hooked to the TV's USB port for power (there's no rainbow square, so I guess it provides enough power), and is using a TP-LINK power-over-ethernet adapter to connect to a switch, and then to a NAS for media.

The noise right before the Kodi splash during boot is from an outside source, and isn't actually part of the splash :p
