I bought a CT+ and can now say that play back of both x264 & x265 1080p video is excellent.
It does make a good htpc running Kodi & Mxplayer. My only regrets are not reading up on it more. To
discover that the sata port is connected through a usb adapter [35meg / sec], since the H8 soc doesn't
have a pcie buss. And that rooting seems to be difficult. My old CT just needed SuperSU installed to be
root.
