My uncle recently gave me an old Minix Neo X8-H Plus. It has been upgraded from the stock Android KitKat up to Lollipop, and it has been rooted. I have connected a USB DVD drive, but I haven’t tested it yet.

I had Kodi on a RPi for a while, but I am otherwise completely new to this sort of thing.

I couldn’t install F-Droid, so I decided to use Aptoide TV instead of Play Store.

So, what should I do with the device? Any app suggestions? Settings I should change?

    That definitely isn’t Android TV but a generic Android device with vanilla software. You could install some streaming apps but not being Netflix certified, you won’t get HD and 4K content on that service. Besides, it’s quite an old Android OS version, so you could have some incompatibilities.

      The TV is only HD-ready, and I prefer to use DVDs, so that won’t be an issue.
