Sailfish OS powered HDMI dongle for media cast / screen mirror

Currently on topics are the Chromecast dongle, Miracast dongle, upcoming Firefox OS powered dongle. Seems to me like it's something that should be done, so I'm proposing Jolla to manufacture Sailfish OS powered dongle with the following features

  • Connected to TV/projector/other display device with HDMI
  • Connected to Jolla via home WLAN network
  • Open Source DLNA supported media player with decent transcoding capabilities included
  • 1080p + audio supported. Direct play for Jolla's video recorded format.
  • Screen cast (mirror) for Sailfish OS screen
  • Screen cast (mirror) for Android screen with Google cast API, making it a perfect replacement for Chromecast
  • Price below 100€, but I'd suggest something like 70-80€ with all above included

Throw in your vote or suggest another possible solution as an answer!
