After a lot of time spent researching various players, I found good advice here START HERE - Pick the Right Kodi Box (updated Dec 2020)
I ordered the OSMC Vero 4K Media Player from here Vero - OSMC
It was sent from the UK to NZ and took 10 working days.
It has played every file video file that I have, including 4K H.265
Great support in the forum here Vero 4K / Vero 4K + - OSMC Forums
Goodbye WD Media Player. I can’t say it was enjoyable.
