    Original MK808B - Netflix 720p smoooothe. Which ROM?

    I have the original MK808B and have it flashed with MK808/B_Feb 2014_Media Centre Edition Rom
    This one has a "hacked" version of netflix so that it runs at 3000 kbit/s = 720p. This is exactly what I want. I already have a raspberry pi doing everything xmbc, so I only need this stick for netflix. Problem is, though it is running pretty smooth, it still drops frames here and there. It is constantly running at 1 ghz as it is not overclockable. I've tried multiple ROMs without finding the golden one with smooth 720p netflix. I do not intend to use the stick for anything else. Can anybody please point me in the direction of a ROM capable of doing that with this hardware? The one I have now is very close, but I think a little OC could get it all the way Which version of android and netflix doesn't matter, as long as playback is smooth.

    Hope you can help.

    hey, took me a while to reply, but i wanted to be sure.

    i've been using this:



    and netflix 720 works great for me. I didn't comment before because i had a crappy ethernet adapter that was only getting about 5Mb which was just slow enough to mess with Netflix if I did anything but "low-quality". Now it seems to work pretty well on "auto". Is it perfect? No ... Netflix's android app could use some work. But I think its good enough for every day netflix use.

    I have the mk808 (non-B)
    I don't use wifi
    I only run 720p
