So what's the current option for people who need a Youtube And Networked Video Files Box?

I've been using a Roku but it's getting increasingly shitty. I don't want to sysadmin a raspi, and I want something that doesn't have an unresponsive UI because it's a minimum-spec ARM chip.

Anything anyone can suggest as a good option?

@foone I like the Chromecast with Google TV dongles bc they're almost stock Google TV (formerly Android TV), let you sideload with little hassle and run well. You can disable the home screen that tries to sell you on movies and shows and can just set it to an "app only" launcher
