I'm looking for a privacy friendly device to use as TV box which can play 4K HDR ~90GB movies without problem, do you guys think the orange pi 5 could handle this type of files?

I like my Shield but it was a real bummer that I couldn't just plug in a USB drive and play movies on it. It's annoying that I have to setup Plex or Jellyfin or whatever to serve movies to the Shield

You can use VLC if you want a simple video player. And XPlore if you want a better file browser
