Advice Needed Best catch-up/online streamer/media box?

Hello,

I know this has been asked before but haven't seen any definitive answers.

What I am looking for is a no-fuss box, which will stream the likes of iPlayer, Channel4 OD etc. What I also need it to play is Netflix. I understand things like Android XBMC have Netflix and iPlayer in their repository but what about ITV Player, Ch4 OD etc.?

I tried getting XBMC on my HTPC working with Netflix but failed miserably... apparently API for Netflix is only available for US and Canadian sites. Apple TV is out of the question as it doesn't have iPlayer available.

I don't mind building something myself but would ideally like a no-fuss box... like Roku or whatever else is out there.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Wester Digital TV Live is supposed to work with Netflix http://www.wdc.com/en/products/products.aspx?id=330
The hardware should be 4:2:2 capable too.

After a bit of deliberation, I've ordered Roku Streaming Stick. It works with everything except ITV Player and I'll continue using my HTPC/laptop-attached-to-TV for MediaPortal stuff...

Late to the party but I think only Samsung boxes have 4OD?

I'm sure my Roku and the Now TV version have all the catchups on them now (bbc iplayer, itv, 4od and the channel 5 one)

Yes Roku has all the players. No subtitles on 4OD though...

Yup, my Now TV box had the ITV Player added about a month ago.

For value for money it cant be beaten as it was sent to me FOC!

Im using XBMC Gotham on my Minix Android Box netflix and itv player works fine for me
