Hello Guys

Current setup :
LG C8 55inch
Denon x1600h AVR with 3.1 setup (2 x wharfedale diamond BS, 1 x Dali Spektor vokal and Elec sub-woofer)
Amazon firetv 4k stick
Netgear R7000 router which has a 4tb external hdd connected to it (ACT fibernet 300mbps plan - 1tb FUP), (1gig interfaces)
TPlink C2 router Backup ISP excitel 300mbps no FUP (1gig interfaces)
USB 3.0 hub connected to TV

Subscriptions that i own :
Netflix 4k plan
Primevideo
Hotstar
Spotify
Apple music
Voot
Zee5
Alt balaji


Requirements :
4K playback with dolby vision / Atmos.
Need support for all types of codecs because i get messages like audio cannot be played on this file and stuff when i connect directly to TV be it via USB or network drive.
Should play every format under the sun with good upscaling and audio quality
Fast user interface with Subtitle auto-download possibility.

Current consideration :
Nvidia Shield Pro from amazon.com ( i have 10k gift coupon from work and i can add ).


What are your thoughts ? What do you guys suggest ? do i have any other options i can spend upto 15k, ( in case of Nvidia shield pro i have amazon vouchers )

Of course, Nvidia shield tv pro 2019 is a great device. This is one more high-end streaming device which plays all formats and also has a hidden SATA drive slot up to 5 TB. HiMedia Q10 Pro. Expensive though. Have a look at the below review. All the best.

 
+1 to nvidia shield TV pr 2019 from amazon as you already have 10K worth of coupons. Supports 4K with dolby vision & atmos. You can install kodi on it and can play any file.
 
Thank you for the inputs guys , i ordered the Nvidia shield pro 2019, used gift coupons worth 145 usd and paid 202.52 usd by card, estimated delivery date shows 18-20th December as i chose fast delivery, so the moral of the story is the GV i had helped me with shipping and custom duties :D, but i will receive it one month sooner as the standard delivery was showing 17-18th Jan as expected delivery.

Cant wait to lay my hands over it!,

How come? You mean to say the GV value wasn't considered for custom valuation?

No, what i meant to say was the total value was coming upto 23k, the voucher i had was of 10k so i effectively had to pay 13k, which means i paid just for the product value from pocket, the shipping, customers all were funded by the GV
