Hi,

does the Rapsberry PI 4B have CEC over HDMI, like all those Amlogic s9xx Boxes?

And whats the difference between 4 and 4B?

Is this the thing i have to get: Raspberry Pi 4 Modell B, 1GB RAM ab â¬Â 35,95 (2019) | Preisvergleich Geizhals Deutschland ?

Is 1Gb enough? On my S905 Box i have 23% usage (413MB from 1814MB) while running DVBViewer PVR with 4k 60fps TV Channel.

1) I'm pretty sure it does - similar to other versions of RPi and LE.

2) No difference. The "B" is just the form factor. If there is a smaller RPi4, later on, then it will be a RPi4A (eg. RPi3A+ and RPi3B+) See Here for a image of difference models.

3) Yes that's the model.

4) For normal Kodi use then 1G is fine. For 4K video and other addons - like tvheadend, docker etc then go for 2G. If you can spare an extra $10 then go for 4G as you should be able to run anything.

Personally the 2G is the version I would go for,
