    The removal of h264 isn’t going to go down well for people who use them for under TV boxes. Will be better off with the Pi4 or another device.

      Can you explain this a little bit? I have been looking to buy a Raspberry Pi for emulation on my TV.

      Is software decoding not sufficient? My rPi2 could handle h264 through Kodi up to 1080p and I don’t think there was hardware decoding then.
