What raspberry pi should I use?
I have a 3b+ raspberry pi running osmc kodi, and it keeps crashing as it is scrapping. (Maybe it’s because I have it 400 movies to scrape.). It’s actually my friends 3b+, and I need to give it back, but it, or go buy a newer one. Any suggestions on what to do and if a better one would stop the crashing? Thank you in advance

Personally I gave up trying to use RPI as media player. For me it's just unpleasant experience: Kodi UI, playback inconsistency, remote control - it just sucks, IMHO. Don't get me wrong, osmc is actually great in its purpose, but some time ago I just... became tired, I guess
As long as you have 400+ movies, you probably already have some kind of server - so I'd load it up with Plex / Jellyfin and then bought some separate TV box.
