Personally I would buy any device that offered a working casting solution for VLC.

I haven't tried Windows or Linux versions of VLC in a long time, but the "Renderer" option in macOS VLC seems to work well.

Unrelated: Have you tried catt? https://github.com/skorokithakis/catt

I have tried the renderer - it's buggy and doesn't support embedded subtitles which I almost always use.

Same thing with catt, which also suffers from having a poor UI.
