I am looking to buy a second DroidBox for the bedroom. Does anyone know whether any of the DroidBox models can be used an an APTx sink? This would be used for some radio apps which don't allowing casting.

(I read online somewhere that it would be available with Lollipop)

Also, interested in whether OpenElec supports APTx sink.

It looks as though (from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AptX ) this is something that would need to be in place (licensed?) on the DroidBOX. I've not got any AptX compatible sound producing hardware to test with unfortunately.

Can any members with AptX compatible bluetooth audio hardware let us know if it works as intended, and if so, which DroidBOX model they own.
Regarding OpenELEC, I doubt they'll be ahead of Android as Bluetooth has previously been a relatively low priority for them in the past.
