Does it support live transcoding of mkv video formats like Airvideo?

Yes it supports live transcoding of mkv video formats. Also if you have LTE connection you can see the Hi-def videos from anywhere without hitch.

We recommend quad core cpu if you want to see 1080p movies for Tonido server.

I used to watch lots of MKV and AVI vids, but in the last 5 years it's been mostly low quality Flash streaming and I don't hoard media any more. I prefer immediate viewing to waiting for a high def download.

On the other hand, I still hoard lots of Gb of mp3 files. No change there, but I can't use Spotify in my country.

It doesn't download media. Tonido streams it. Tonido can also stream Flac music format.
